I had a sim. failure w/ a Ford Taurus. Luckly it was VERY close to local radiator shop [big fleet service type] They had it out & fixed in less than 2 hours! Tech said that he'd seen tons of them fail, all from blown out glued seams. This outfit even took the precaution of adding an outer glued seam seal. Dunno if it helped, I sold the car a year later. Tech also told me that they saw many repairs come in from inadvertant punctures [screwdrivers I guess]. I was told mfgs switched to plastic cos of "environmental" factors.... more likely its cos its way cheaper to make. Besides how environmentally friendly is non-recycleable plastic vs. good old metal???Pete [A cloud of steam, a firey exhaust, and a HI-HO oh Shit!!]
Disturbed is a life style...deal with it.
