We bought our car back in 2010 and has since been paid off, we only took the car into the shop once and that was to have a part repaired, i asked them to flush the coolant system as well because it was dirty they said they would and guess what got teh car back first thing i checked was the coolant....Still dirty. WE ended up taking it back to the guy that did our oilchange and had him drain and fill the coolant. The 50/50 warranty is bullshit! I paid $300+for a simple repair that i could have did on my one for cheaper, but because they had the 50/50 i thought it would have been cheaper. Our Car runs fine now, but probably only because we NEVER took it back there for repairs. We had a similar situation with overheating and in another situation cutting off on the freeway. STILL making notes we paid the mechanic by my house $350 to fix the problem. TPS & crankshaft/camshaft sensors..Im pretty Confidant had we taken the car to the dealer to have repairs done we would have paid WAY more and our car would probably be at the dump. It has had an evap leak since day one and still need to get that fixed!!
As for having enough water what kind of mechanics do they have working here, water boils and evaporates, water in an engine should only be used in emergencies then replaced with 50/50 coolant ASAP.
