ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS, AND WHEN STATIONARY, THERE WAS A VERY DISTINCT FUME SMELL COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE SMELL WAS NOTICEABLE AND CAME IN THROUGH THE VENTS. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNALS PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, WHERE THEY REPLACED THE LEFT AND RIGHT CYLINDER HEAD COVER; CYLINDER HEAD CUP SHIELD, MANIFOLD FUEL GASKET AND THE EXHAUST GASKET BUT THE SMELL PERSISTED.
