Consumer Description

I DRIVE THIS CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON THE TRACK APPROXIMATELY 5 WEEKENDS A YEAR. I HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE ENGINE COOLANT PIPE FAILURES ON THESE GT3'S AND I FEAR I WILL BE NEXT AND FEAR IT MAY CAUSE OTHER VEHICLES BEHIND ME TO CRASH. ITS NOT SAFE FOR THESE COOLANT LINES TO BREAK WHICH CAN OCCUR ON THE TRACK OR THE HIGHWAY. IT SEEMS TO BE A PORSCHE PROBLEM IN CLIMATES WITH LOTS OF VARIATIONS IN TEMPERATURE BOTH HOT AND COLD WITH THE EXPANDING OF THE HOSE AND/OR THE GLUE KEEPING THEM IN PLACE. *TR
