CarComplaints.com Notes: This is a classic example of why you should avoid the first model year of a new car. Sure, it's new and shiny but there's going to be some growing pains.
On the highway doing holiday visiting. Car temperature gauge moved progressively hot. Of course I was between exits. Stopped the car, let it cool for about an hour. Radiator fluid was the right color, was low on water. added what remained of a 12oz bottle of water I had. Drove to a gas station filled it up and drove to my destination with no further issues. My brother took a look at it and didn't see anything obvious. No further heat issues until Friday (12/28/12), On my way home from work, a mile from the house started getting hot. Took it in on Saturday (12/29/12).
Mechanic said the fan was not coming on at all. All connections were fine. It just stopped working. I guess if my frigging engine light was working I would have had some kind of warning!!!
