Consumer Description

AFTER DRIVING MY VEHICLE FOR APPROX 20 MINUTES I NOTICE SMOKE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE HOOD. I OPENED THE HOOD AND FOUND THAT THE HOSE LEADING FROM THE ENGINE WAS VERY. MY TEMPERATURE GAUGES ALL REGISTERED NORMAL SO I ADDED SOME ENGINE COOLANT AND DID NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE NEXT AM. AFTER A 3 MILE DRIVE TO WORK SAME SITUATION AGAIN. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THE RADIATOR HAD ROTTED AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. ODD SINCE THERE WAS NO INDICATION PRIOR TO THE SMOKE.*AK
