Subject: | No A/C, Engine Coolant Leak, Engine Overheating (Install Plastic Shield to Stop Stone/Debris Impingement) |
Models: | 2006-2007 Chevrolet HHR, LS, LT and Panel Van |
Built Prior to August 27, 2007 |
Some customers may comment on the engine overheating, a coolant leak, or that the A/C is inoperative.
This may be due to the very large opening in the front fascia. Stones/debris can impact the A/C condenser and/or the radiator and pierce the horizontal cooling tubes. This in turn causes loss of A/C refrigerant, loss of engine coolant and/or engine overheating.
Important:: Verify that the customer concern was caused by condenser/radiator impingement.
Important:: Prior to installing the shield, inspect the condenser and the radiator for stone impingement.
Dealer technicians are to install a plastic shield that snaps onto the condenser vertical tubes that protects the horizontal radiator and condenser cooling tubes.
