Consumer Description

I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR STARTING TO OVERHEAT, AS SOON AS I WOULD SEE THE CAR OVERHEAT I WOULD PULL OVER AND WAIT FOR IT TO COOL AS I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE THESE PROBLEMS. I STARTED TO RESEARCH THE CAR ON THE INTERNET AND THIS WEB SITE FOR CAR COMPLAINTS HAD AT LEAST 500 CAR OWNERS WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL HAVING THEIR CARS OVERHEAT. I HAVE TAKING IT TO FOUR DIFFERENT AUTO SHOPS AND FIRST THEY SAY MAYBE THE WATER PUMP, MAYBE THE RADIATOR, AND THEN THEY ALL DECIDE IT A BLOWN HEADGASKET. HOW IS THAT EVEN BE POSSIBLE I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS AND NEVER HAVE HAD THIS BIG OF ISSUE. AND AFTER READING ALL OF THESE OTHER CAR OWNERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE HOW CAN THESE MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL. WE ALL SPEND ALOT OF MONEY TO BUY A CAR AND TO MAINTAIN A CAR AND THIS IS ONE ISSUE THAT MAYBE 1 OR 2 PEOPLE MAY HAVE BUT NOT HUNDREDS?????? HERE IS WHERE I FOUND THE MOST COMPLAINTS.
