| Description of the problem | Sitting in event traffic car sitting still and smelled burning from air vents, the panel instrument was reading car overheating. Once we were able to get out of traffic and get car up to speed the car stopped overheating but could not let car idle/sit still or car will overheat. Car has 48k miles purchased new, told dealership this should not be happening and service tech stated this was the 3rd to 4th one this week they have worked on with same problem. Now looking at close to $600 to replace cooling fan. I feel this should be looked into as a manufacturing issue for recall with so many complaints that i have found online with this model with the same issue of cooling fan problems |
