Description of the problem | Just turned on car and was pulling out of the driveway. The information light came on and said it was low on coolant. I noticed a burning type smell when i got out of the car to see how low the coolant was. This car had been recalled before for engine coolant leaks and overheating. I took my car in to get that recall fixed in may 2014 and now it's having that problem again. I don't know if something else broke or that they didn't fix it right. I didn't buy this car brand new so i could take it in like 5 times for recalls. I also checked the coolant level last week and it was at the level it should be at... So it may be a fast leak. |
