Consumer Description

CAR HAS BEEN OVERHEATING WHEN AC IS PUT ON. OVERHEATING WHILE IDLING SOMETIMES. I HAVE SPENT OVER $2000 TRYING TO FIX IT. IT'S NOT HEAD GASKET OR HEADS ACCORDING TO 2 SHOPS. I CALLED CHRYSLER, THEY SAID NO COMPLAINTS ABOUT COOLING SYSTEM HAVE EVER BEEN REPORTED. I FILED A COMPLAINT. SHOPS HAVE CHANGED EVERYTHING AND CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN AFTER EVERYTHING HAS BEEN REPLACED. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL!! *TR
