Consumer Description

CRACKED ENGINE HEAD CAUSED ANTIFREEZE LEAKAGE, CAR SPUTTERS. HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $450 FOR THE HEAD CORE, EXCLUDING LABOR AND ADDITIONAL COSTS. IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THAT SOME DEALERS ARE GETTING THIS PART AT NO COST FOR REPLACEMENT. WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR AT THE VERY LEAST THE COST OF THE HEAD CORE UNIT! *AK
