Unhappy any one else have this problem
ok so i'm 20 and i just bought my first pt cruiser ever and i love it .... wanted this car since 2000 when it came out ... so in december i bought a 2006 pt from my local chrysler dodge jeep dealership and the beginning of march it was over heating and i took in and they just replaced the radiator cap becaue that's what they said was the problem and now just today it over heated again and im taking it back to the dealership today b/c obviously i can't drive it but i was wondering if anyones had those problems with their too ....

Tommey,

Welcome to the forum. There's lots of reasons for the PT (or any other vehicle ) to overheat. One of the speeds on the fan could be burnt out. You could have air in the system. The water pump might have froze up. More diagnostic work has to be done for us to help you, but meanwhile, you seem to be still under some sort of warranty even if it was bought used so take it back and complain that they didn't fix the problem right in the first place.

Good luck with it and hopefully they are reputable enough to fix it right the second time without too much hassle. Let us know what they do.
