Hello all
I've done most of my homework and have searched the past threads on this issue but I still have a few questions. Details below.
- Where can I get a copy of the extended warranty Saturn offered to those who had cracked heads?
- Did Saturn make this problem known to all its affected customers or just the ones who complained?
- How long can the car run like this if it is kept full of coolant? What further damage can be done?
Okay, here are the details. My daughter bought a '95 Saturn (1.9l DOHC). I'm pretty sure it is an SL2. The normal cracked head symptoms started soon after she got it. Low coolant light, intermittent overheating problem, loss of coolant, reservoir has scum in it, coolant foams like a draft St. Patty's Day beer when engine accelerated and pukes out when you go back to idle suddenly. She has not let it red line and since the temp sensor is flaky, the fan is wired to run anytime the engine is running.
Thanks in advance for any help!
