CarComplaints.com Notes: Chrysler has taken the boring small car frame of the Neon, grafted a 1930s-era roadster body on top and named it the PT Cruiser. While the new look may appeal to some, the vehicle has unfortunately also inherited many of the same problems as the Neon.
I need to know if anybody else has this problem. Changed thermostat twice, fan motor and water pump. It still runs hot. At first, if you turned the heater on the temp would go down. Now it runs hot all the time. Can anybody help?????
My car is overheating. I've had the radiator fan, thermostat, and coolant sensor replaced. It is still overheating. My next step is the radiator. I don't want to replace that if that's not the problem. If anyone has any suggestions or had the same problem and resolved it, please let me know.
I've replaced the thermostat and radiator so far, and my car continues to overheat. I fear it may be a head gasket but even then I'm not sure that will solve the problem. Since this started I've searched the internet in hopes of a solution but all I've found is numerous forums of people with the exact same problem without answers. They've tried everything I have and more, spent hundreds of dollars and still the problem remains. My next step is to call Chrysler and see what they have to offer but if what many bloggers say is true, all I'll get is the run around. All I want is to get my car back on the road. Can anyone help?
THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. CAR RUNS HOT, SOUNDING LIKE IT WAS GOING TO BLOW. PULL OFF ROAD, AT NIGHT, LET IT COOL DOWN, DRIVE UNTIL HAPPENS AGAIN. WHEN GET TO DEALERSHIP--NEXT DAY--HE CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG.
