| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Noticed faint smell of anti freeze in oct 2003. had problems with defroster clearing windows, very hard to clean. noticed passanger side floor carpet is soaked with anti freeze. obviously a problem with the heater core or the hose(s) which connect to it are leaking. car has 60000 miles, and is well maintained. this heater core leaks directly over computers which, as far as i know, control the engine - and could cause it to act unpredictably or cut out altogether when driving. heater core gasket was the problem according to dealer and i have had it fixed. *ak |
