My engine light came on 4 days prior. Took to repair shop and code showed PO OB6. I was informed there is a small pinhole leak of antifreeze by the Head Gasket at the block. There is only 63k mileage on this vehicle and if I had blown this gasket I could have put me at risk or others had this blown a gasket. I just cant believe this is happening since there is not much mileage on this vehicle. Please research.

During lane departure the size of the rear view mirrors do not display a vehicle in an adjacent lane until it’s too late. However, although the lane departure does notify the driver with a flashing light in the mirror the flashing light is easily missed. An audible warning would be more effective when the turn signal is activated. I departed my lane nearly colliding with an unseen vehicle.
