CAR CONTINUES TO OVERHEAT. THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME IT HAS HAPPENED; SOMETIME THE PROBLEM CAN NOT BE DUPLICATED AND I AM SENT ON MY WAY EVEN THOUGH IT HAS HAPPEN BEFORE. THE CYLINDER HEADS, WATER PUMP, THERMOSTAT, SENSOR AND MANY OTHERS ARE ONLY A FEW OF THE THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN REPLACED ON THIS PROBLEM. THE CAR SHUTS-OFF WITHOUT WARNING, AND DRIVES LIKE A DESIEL ENGINE (ROUGH), YOU ALMOST HAVE TO FLOOR IT TO MAKE THE CAR STOP AND THE DEALER SAYS IT IS NORMAL; EVEN THOUGH I HIT ANOTHER CAR GOING ABOUT 5MPH BECAUSE THE CAR JERKED FOWARD AND SMASHED MY HOOD (I HIT A FORD:EXCRUSSION SO HE HAD NO DAMAGE) AND THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT CORRECTLY. SURE THE DEALER SHIP TRIES TO FIX THE PROBLEM BUT THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES I HAVE BEEN OUT OF MY CAR FOR A LONG AS 7 TO 8 WEEKS AND MANY TIMES THERE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHATS WRONG. I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT RICK CASE THE DEARLERSHIP OWNER AND I NEVER REICEVE A CALL OR EMAIL. *AK
