All Engine And Engine Cooling Complaints
ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AND STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. THIS HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES PER DAY. TO START THE ENGINE BACK UP, I HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, CUT THE IGNITION SWITCH COMPLETELY OFF, WAIT 1-5 MINUTES, CUT THE IGNITION SWITCH COMPLETELY BACK ON AND IF THE GAS METER GAUGE COMES ON, THEN THE ENGINE WILL START UP AGAIN. THE ENGINE WILL CUT OFF AGAIN WHILE DRIVING IN 1 MINUTE TO A FEW HOURS. *TR
SEVERELY CRACKED DASH BOARD AND LEAKING HEATER CORE AS A RESULT. *TR
