Consumer Description

VEHICLE OVERHEATED ON SEVERAL RANDOM OCCASIONS. AIR CONDITIONING BLOWS HOT AIR WHEN NOT MOVING. VEHICLE STALLED IN INTERSECTION ON SEVERAL RANDOM OCCASIONS. THE COOLING FAN RELAY WAS REPLACED WHICH TEMPORARILY CORRECTED ALL RELATED PROBLEMS. THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM HAS NOW DEVELOPED AFTER 8000 MILES. AFTER LOOKING ON THE INTERNET IT IS OBVIOUS THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM. A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR 2011 AND 2012 MODELS BUT NOT THE 09. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT COULD DESTROY THE VEHICLES ENGINE OR WORSE GET SOME ONE KILLED IF IT STALLS WHILE CROSSING TRAFFIC. *TR
