2006 3.9L Head Gasket

[nick8519]

I have a 2006 Impala LT with the 3.9L engine. It has 46k miles on it. I took it to the dealer last week to get the oil changed. When I picked it up, the service writer told me that the head gaskets were "seeping" not leaking. He said that GM redesigned the head bolts because of a problem with the threads "pulling away." Anyway, thankfully the car is still under extended warranty so I'm not really worried about it. I'm going to take it to the dealer tomorrow and have them replace the head gasket and bolts. Hopefully this isn't the beginning of more problems and headaches!! I just wanted to know if anyone else has had any problems like this?
