Consumer Description

THE CAR HAD AROUND 65,000 MILES ON IT, AND ALL THE SUDDEN THE HEAT STOPPED WORKING. AIR WOULD BLOW, BUT IT WOULD BE COLD AIR. WE REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT, AS A MECHANIC TOLD ME TO TRY THAT, AND SEE IF IT HELPED, BUT THE HEAT WAS STILL NOT COMING OUT. EVENTUALLY, AS IT WAS GETTING REALLY COLD, WE TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC, AND IT COST $498.30 TO FIX! HE SAID THE WATER SHUT VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *TR
