problem #1

Aug 272003

CR-V 4-cyl

  • 3,020 miles
The clamps on the radiator were not properly sealed at the time the vehicle was manufactured. As a result the engine over heated while driving at highway speed. The anti freeze leaked out onto the engine compartment. The dealership tightened the clamp, but the head gasket blew a day later.
