Consumer Description

THE COOLANT LINES ON THIS CAR HAVE WELL KNOWN AND DOCUMENTED FAILURE PROBLEMS. I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGERS AND AS SUCH AM GOING TO HAVE THE REPAIRS COMPLETED AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE. WITH THE FAILURE RATE OF THE COOLANT FITTINGS ON THESE CARS, AND THE USUALLY CATASTROPHIC RESULTS I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. I'M GOING TO SPEND MY OWN MONEY TO CORRECT A PROBLEM THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED BY PORSCHE. *TR
