Consumer Description

MY 2006 DODGE CHARGER R/T EXPERIENCED AN OVERHEATING ENGINE. AFTER MY MECHANIC PERFORMED MANY TESTS, HE FOUND OUT THE A/C FAN HAD NUMEROUS DEFECTS. THE A/C FAN BROKE APART, CAUSING THE ENGINE COOLING FAN TO ALSO FAIL - RESULTING MY VEHICLE OVERHEATING. THIS FAULTY A/C FAN IS APPARENTLY A KNOWN ISSUE BUT NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH FOR A RECALL. THANKFULLY, I WAS IN TOWN AND NOT ON THE ROAD BECAUSE MY ENGINE TEMP SPIKED TO RED WHEN THE FANS FAILED. MY MECHANIC SUGGESTS I REPLACE THE FAN PERIODICALLY, TO KEEP FROM HAVING IT CONTINUE TO FAIL AND DAMAGE THE ENTIRE COOLING SYSTEM. *TR
