Alero 2.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 76,000 miles

We don't know what is wrong with the overheating. Sometimes it gets hot fast like a few blocks from home and dies in the middle of the road and sometimes it will make it 50 miles away and back with NO problems but we never know when that is. Antifreeze comes out the overflow hose every time it leaks,sometimes it doesn't cause the car to overheat but it mostly does. Replaced thermostat, water pump, tons of overflow tank caps, overflow tank itself, put in a stop leak, ran diagnostics, and been to countless mechanics who have no idea what is wrong. Never know when the car is going to decide to quit working and leave me stranded, these problems make me hate this car and can't fix it because we can't find any answers for it.
