Consumer Description

IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, THE AIR CONDITIONER HAD THE SWEET SMELL OF MAPLE SYRUP AND A FEW MINUTES LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WITHIN SECONDS, THE CAR STUTTERED EACH TIME I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE. ONCE OUT OF TRAFFIC, I LOOKED AND SAW A LARGE AMOUNT OF COOLANT DRIPPING FROM THE CAR. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO CONFIRMED COOLANT BUILT UP PRESSURE IN RADIATOR, HOSES AND TRANSMISSION. CVT TRANSMISSION IS FLOODED WITH COOLANT AND WATER, RADIATOR AND ALL HOSES WILL NEED REPLACEMENT. *TR
