What causes boilover in a 1997 chrysler concorde, from the coolant reservoir drain hose? 1997 Chrysler Concorde, the top of the coolant reservoir (this car doesn't have access to the actual radiator, if you need to add fluid has to be done from the coolant reservoir) has the drain hose in case of overfill or boilover. The drain hose is attached to the reservoir, but the other end is not attached to anything. I noticed it overheating today, and when looking under the hood couldn't see any leaks. Under the car, there was a slight leak coming from the side of the reservoir (passenger side) almost behind and in front of the wheel. When I cut the car off, water started shooting from the hose for boilovers. That either shouldn't happen, or it should be routed back into the tank. Any clue what causes this? The fans work, and the top radiator hose gets pressurized while running, but after 5 to 10 minutes at idle it runs hot. Any clues?

Why is Chrysler sitting at the free money trough with Ford and GM? Ford and GM are publicly traded companies and their stock is subject to impact average Americans and their retirement plans. I don't agree with a bail out, but I see why they are at the table begging. I can't believe no Senator or Representative in either of these trips to Washington asked Chrysler why they were there also. They are a private firm held by a private company that has plenty of money. If they need money shouldn't they just ask the parent company for it? Are we really going to give a few billion dollars to a hand full of guys that already have a few billion dollars in the bank?

Why would GM or Chrysler want to have less dealers to sell their product? GM & Chrysler are in bankruptcy because they can't sell enough cars to make a profit. GM & Chrysler does not sell us their cars. The independent dealer sells their product. These dealers are the automakers ONLY customer; without them they cannot sell cars. How does shutting them out solve the automakers problem. The dealer is the only source of income for the automakers not a liability. Add in the lost parts sales and warranty service the dealer provides and closing dealers makes as much sense as closing grocery stores to help improve Kraft Food's bottom line.
