Consumer Description

BOUGHT A 2002 PT CRUISE NEW. BEFORE THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY RAN OUT THE WATER PUMP HAD TO BE REPLACED AND AT THE 36,000 MARK THE HEAD GASKET HAD TO BE REPLACED. NOW AT JUST OVER 60,000 THE WATER PUMP AGAIN HAD TO BE REPLACED. NOW I NOTICED IT IS STARTING TO RUN ON THE HOT SIDE. I AM SO AFRAID IT IS THE HEAD GASKET AGAIN. *TR
