2 Coolant Leaking problem of the 2001 Dodge Dakota

Failure Date: 04/12/2007

Heater core has gone out for the second time causing hot coolant to be leaked on my feet in the cab and fogging the windows severely while driving. Research shows this is a common problem with my model year Dakota. Research also shows that once you have the problem then it will happen again frequently with no final fix. I feel this is dangerous and the manufacturer should have a permanent fix. My first failure was at 58k miles and now my second is at 69k.
