BTW: VWoA asked my friend if his feet were burned by the coolant. When he answered yes, they immediately asked if he went to a hospital. Litigation is one of their fears.

Yes, A friends 91 GTi blew a heatercore last week and the dealer fixed it free of charge. But not without the expected denial and complaining. It is a Safety recall issued by the department of transportation. They have to honor it. Check www.alldata.com to see if your car is within the years covered. Talk to the dealer with the specific recall notice and numbers. Then call VWoA to verify. -Les -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Larry Velez Sent: Saturday, January 24, 2004 12:25 PM To: 'a2list' Subject: RE: [a2-16v-list] Coolant on my boots!

Larry, Check with VW to see if the heater core was covered by the recall. If its not, then get ready to take out the dash. It won't be a fun job.
