AT APPROXIMATELY 83,456 MILES THE HEATER CORE BROKE. I FIRST NOTICED SMELL ETHYLENE GLYCOL, IT CAUSED (SOMEWHAT GREASY) FOGGING OF THE WINDSHIELD ABOVE THE WINDSHIELD HEATER VENT. GLYCOL LEAK DIRECTLY INTO THE CAR, CAUSING WET UPHOLSTERY OR CARPETING. COOLANT SPRAYED DIRECTLY INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT FOLLOWED WITH WHITE COLORED SMOKE. *TR

I BOUGHT A NEW CHEVROLET S-10 IN 2003. FROM THE VERY FIRST TIME I DROVE IT I NOTICED THE A/C COMPRESSOR MADE A GRINDING NOISE WHICH WAS MUCH NOSIER THAN ANY OTHER COMPRESSOR I'VE EVER HEARD ON ANY VEHICLE. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SUPPOSEDLY "CHECKED IT OUT", ON A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND CLAIMED THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE A/C. ALL I KNOW IS TWO MONTHS AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED, MY A/C COMPRESSOR STARTED SMOKING, BLOWING HEAVY CLOUDS OF WHITE SMOKE INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, AND THE AIR COMING INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WAS HOT. THE CLUTCH HAD WENT OUT ON THE COMPRESSOR. NOW I HAVE A FAIRLY NICE TRUCK THAT I HAVE TO BAKE IN WHEN I DRIVE IT. THIS IS THE FIRST CAR I'VE EVER OWNED IN MY 52 YEARS THAT EVER HAD THIS TO HAPPEN. I CERTAINLY FEEL CHEATED IN...
