Consumer Description

HEATER SUDDENLY STOPPED FUNCTIONING ON VERY COLD DAY WAS INITIAL INDICATION THERE WAS A PROBLEM. AFTER HAVING EXTENSIVE DIAGNOSTICS DONE AND MANY REPAIRS LATER TEMPERATURE GAUGE STILL GOES INTO RED AND NO HEAT COMING INTO CABIN WHEN HEATER TURNS ON. THIS SEEMS TO BE A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM AS I HAVE DONE MUCH RESEARCH, AND PEOPLE SEEM TO BE STUCK WITH HIGH REPAIR BILLS JUST LIKE ME BECAUSE THEY MADE THE UNFORTUNATE DECISION TO PURCHASE A VEHICLE THAT CAME OFF THE ASSEMBLE WITH A FLAWED DESIGN IN THE COOLING SYSTEM/ HEAD GASKETS. *TR
