 I was driving along when i could smell my car getting hot, so i pulled over and sure enough it was overheating, but did not show inside on the dashboard, so i had it checked and the plastic housing around the thermostat was cracked in 3 places, so i say fix it ,they said it would be 450.00, ok no problem, then they called back and said that the housing was welded to the manifold and that i would have to replace all for 1200.00 and that the housing wasn't made of plastic anymore because of this problem. i think this should be a recall and fixed for free.
