Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The radiator and cooling system on my 1996 chevrolet balzer gets rusty and clogged every couple of years. in 1998 the whole radiator was taken out and boiled. in 2001 the cooling system was flushed again due to rust and clogging. and now, april 2004, the system has clogged again and causes engine overheat. gm uses dex cool which is supposed to last five years, but every couple of years this coolant seems to clog the system and requires an overhaul costing around $400. *la
