I HAD TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO HAVE THE COOLANT LINES SECURED INTO THE ENGINE OF MY CAR. THIS CAR HAS A KNOWN FAULT IN WHERE THE COOLANT LINES COME UNSECURED FROM THE VEHICLE, DUMPING ALL COOLANT WITHIN SECONDS. NOT ONLY DOES THIS OVERHEAT THE ENGINE, BUT SLIPPERY COOLANT ALL OVER THE REAR TIRES OF A VEHICLE MEANS A CRASH CAN OCCUR.

APPARENTLY, THIS IS NOT AN UNUSUAL FAILURE WITH THE GT3 ENGINE.…
