| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I am inquiring about this vehicle because i was told by a mechanic that this make and model had certain defects within the engine and it's parts. i have not found any listings of major recall, but i have found other listings reporting problems like mine. are these problems the result of defect, age, improper parts, or poor care? the problems that i have are manifold gasket leaks. i have found that manifold itself is warped. how is that possible? the head gaskets are craked. this automobile ran at a high temperature, even after flushing the radiator. the car cooled after i turned off the air conditioner. i found the that car had the incorrect thermostat installed. this particular part is designed for high heat readings. the car would have to overheat before the fan would start. i recently replaced fuel tank. the car is still running, but not properly. i would greatly appreciate this if you look into this for me.*ak |
