Be very sure it is head gaskets,these car have problem with intake gasket breakdown,causing coolant leaks into the crankcase and out around the heads,symptom very familiar with head gaskets.Replace the intake gaskets is something around $300 instead of $1000 for the head gaskets,quotes are parts and labor R/R(remove and replace)Good luck.

I changed blown head gaskets on a Dodge Caravan and the gasket set to do the job cost me $35 and that was from the dealership which surprised me as I figured they would be higher than the parts stores. I did it myself. I have no idea what a mechanic would charge but I’m sure it won’t be cheap.
