IN 2012 I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A OIL CHANGE. I HAD NOTICED A SMELL OF ANTI FREEZE COMING FROM THE VENT WHEN YOU TURN ON THE HEAT. AFTER THE SERVICE I ASK MY MECHANIC IF HE SMELLED ANYTHING AND HE STATED SOMETHING SMELLS SWEET BUT DID NOT SAY HE SMELLED ANTI FREEZE. OVER THE PAST TWO YEAR WHEN I DRIVE HER CAR I TURN THE HEAT ON AND YES THE SMELL OF ANTI FREEZE IS STILL THERE FOR ABOUT 10 MINS. AND GOES AWAY. FWD: 2/2014 MY WIFE CALLED AND SAID AFTER TURNING THE HEAT ON SHE COULD NOT SEE OUT THE FRONT INSIDE WINDSHIELD AND HAD TO KEEP WIPING IT WITH A RAG AND THE SMELL OF ANTI FREEZE WAS VERY STRONG. I KNOW ABOUT HEATER CORES AND IT SHOULDN'T BE BAD BECAUSE MY WIFE HATES HEAT. *TR

SERVICE STABILITRAK AND TRACTION CONTROL COME ON ALWAYS WHILE ON THE FREEWAY. TRACTION CONTROL WILL TURN ITSELF OFF. NOT LONG AFTER THESE LIGHTS COME ON, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AS WELL. ALL SEEM TO CLEAR THEMSELVES AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS. BY THE TIME I AM ABLE TO HAVE IT RAN FOR A CODE THE LIGHTS ARE ALREADY OFF.
