ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM:RADIATOR ASSEMBLY
I PROVIDED YOU THE DEALER INFO. WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR. NOW MY CAR IS AT 'MCKEAN HONDA' : 5033 LIBERTY AVE. PITTSBURGH, PA 15224, (412)683-3800. RADIATOR SUDDELY BLEW UP AFTER A 10MIN. OF DRIVING. A MECHANIC AT THE DEALER SAYS THAT THE ENGINE'S GOT OVERHEATED FIRST AND THEN POSSIBLY THE CYLINDER HEAD DAMAGED LEADING TO A MIXTURE OF ENGINE OIL AND ANTI-FREEZE. NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ON AT THE TIME OF INCIDENT. THEY HAVEN'T DISSASEMBLED THE ENGINE YET BUT I ASKED THEM TO DO IT TO FIND OUT THE ACTUAL DAMAGE. HONDA SAYS IT CAN HAPPEN WHEN IT'S OVERHEATED BUT DON'T EXPLAIN WHY IT'S OVERHEATED. I FOLLOWED ALL MAINT. SCHEDULE AND GOT MY CAR INSPECTED(INCLUDING OIL CHANGE) JUST 2 MONTHS AGO(JULY 10 2002) AT THAT DEALER. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW AN ENGINE WITH 37K MILEAGE CAN FAIL THIS EASILY. THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT A POSSILBILTY OF A CRACK ON THE ENGINE BLOCK. THE $4K ESTIMATION IS TRUE WHEN THE WHOLE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED WHICH IS THE WORST CASE. IT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS IF I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. THE RADIATOR EXPLODED WITH LOTS OF SMOKE WITH 4IN LONG SPLIT ON THE TOP. FORTUNATELY I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT ON A WAY BACK HOME AFTER PICKING UP MY WIFE AND KID. THE CAR WAS IMMEDIATELY TOWED. I CAN'T BELIEVE IF ANY VEHICLE ENGINE CAN FAIL THIS EASY. THE 3 YEAR LONG WARRANTY'S BEEN EXPIRED AND I DIDN'T GET ANY EXTENDED WARRANTY. IS THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS REPENTING NOT HAVING ONE? NLM
