All Engine And Engine Coolingexhaust System Complaints

#10074223 |
THE FUMES FROM THE EXHAUST PIPE ENTERED THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE FROM THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM. THE FUMES WERE COMING FROM THE BLOW DOWN PIPE WHICH COMES OFF THE CRANK CASING OF THE ENGINE. WHEN THE COOLING FAN WAS IN USE IT BLEW THE FUMES INTO THE CLIMATE CONTROL , THUS BLOWING IT INTO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS INSTALLED A RUBBER PIPE ON THE END OF THE BLOW DOWN PIPE, THAT LEADS UNDER THE MAIN CAB OF THE VEHICLE, SO NOW WHEN THE VEHICLE IS AT A COMPLETE STOP, WITH THE WINDOW OPEN, THE FUMES ARE COMING THROUGH THE WINDOW. ALSO AT 15,000, WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE JERKS FORWARD AND THE FAILS TO STOP IMMEDIATELY. THIS OCCURRED BECAUSE THE BRAKE ROTORS WERE WARPED. *NM
