Consumer Description

ENGINE FAN KEEPS RUNNING AND DEALERSHIP INSISTS IT'S NORMAN BUT IT WASN'T HAPPENING FROM 2012 THROUGH 2014. HAPPENS WHEN I START THE CAR AND ENGINE IS COLD, WHEN SITTING AT LIGHT A LIGHT, WITH AIR ON OR OFF. I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. I HAVE THE FEELING THEY'RE WAITING FOR SOMETHING MAJOR TO HAPPEN. I'M VERY CONCERNED. I'VE HAD IT CHECKED 3 TIMES. THEY SAY IT'S NORMAL, BUT IF IT WERE DOING THIS WHEN I BOUGHT IT, I DEFINITELY WOULDN'T HAVE. PLEASE HELP, I DON'T WANT TO DIE!
