CHECKED CAR WHILE STATIONED, WHEN RUNNING ALWAYS NEEDS MORE COOLING MAYBE ELECTRICAL BURNOUT OF A PART THAT CONNECTS TO THE RADIATOR FAN. WHEN PUT THE DIAGNOSE CODE, NONE IS GIVEN, AND TEMPERATURE GOES UP TO 225, ITS A HAZARD IF A PERSON DOES NOT KNOW THAT FAN IS NOT WORKING, PUTTING REFRIGERANT ALL THE TIME. READ THAT THERE IS A NEW RE-DESIGN COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY.

MY CAR KEEPS SHUTTING COMPLETELY OFF EVEN WHILE DRIVING, THE RADIO COME ON AND OFF BY ITSELF AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHY, THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS I BE DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE AND THE CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC
