  • 2006 WESTERN STAR 6900
    - JACKSON, MI

    I WAS TRAVELING DOWN AN INTERSTATE IN FLORIDA WHEN HE HEARD A NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. VARIOUS LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE DASH AND EVENTUALLY THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN. I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND FOUND MY HORTON FAN HUB ASSEMBLY HAD COME OFF AND CREATED A LEAK IN THE RADIATOR. IT ALSO HAS CAUSED INTERNAL DAMAGE IN THE ENGINE WHICH I FOUND AFTER ALL THE REPAIRS WERE COMPLETED. I AM CURRENTY CONSUMING 7 GALLONS OF ANTIFREEZE A WEEK DUE TO THE FAN HUB OVERHEATING THE ENGINE.
