Description of the problem | The engine overheats for no reason and as a result the car shuts off. Took the car to ford and was told due to it being a dual clutch transmission there is nothing under the hood to cool the engine down and to just put the hood up for 20 minutes and it is fine. This has happened 3 times now in stop and go traffic. |
