Consumer Description
THE CAR WAS MOVING DOWN THE ROAD, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, 'AC OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMPERATURE'- FANS KICKED ON AND RAN NON STOP. COOLANT WAS ADDED IMMEDIATELY ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THE HEAD CRACKED- THE COOLANT WAS RUNNING INTO THE OIL. THIS CAR WAS NOT VERY OLD AND IT FOR NO REASON SHOULD HAVE CRACKED. I THINK IT IS IN RELATION TO RECALL CAMPAIGN 12081.
