The coolant system has given me many problems and I am not sure if the problems are not unrelated to each other. The temperature gauge has been replaced twice, the fan clutch which is part of cooling system has failed, the radiator has developed a leak and consequently the whole thing needed replacing and then the hose from radiator was damaged. Although the temperature gauges and clutch fan were replaced by ext. warranty, the rest of the work has been paid for and been very expensive. When will all these repairs stop? The car has not even got a full cycle on its motor.

the interior was about 10 degrees off and the check engine light kept coming on and when I finally got to the repair shop nothing... finally it was on and I went straight to the dealership and showed them before turning off the vehicle.
