Default Question. Hope you can help. Thank you in advance!

I have a 2004 Crossfire. There is something running after the vehicle is off. It is not the cooling fan. It is running and it is running so long, it starts to smoke. Please help! Thank you! PS - - This car sucks!

I'll buy it off you .. sight unseen.. $500 cash.. then you won't have to deal with it sucking anymore..

Now where is this located.. under the hood.. under the dash.. you pull the battery cable to get it to stop? just let it smoke till it eventually quits?

And if the sale goes through.. what color and how many miles?

What sucks is when people drive cars into the ground yet act surprised at the consequences.

I am not saying ALL crossfires suck, but mine does. I have only paid one car payment on it. I just got it. It has not been run into the ground & has been taken care of. The car lot sold us a lemon! Something just wont cut off under the hood and it smells bad. I have to manually cut it off.

Like stated above, without a location....can't help... Could be the air pump driver's side of the motor under the hood, a heater fan, radiator electric fan, to mention a few....hopefully not the fuel pump as you won't have to worry about the car "sucking" much longer....The cars are a little touchy in the electronic dept...The car doesn't suck, but car problems suck for sure...

$550 and that's my final offer. I always wanted a car with the 007 smoke screen mod.

It make no sense to come on here and say this thing sucks.
Do you want help?
Post the best description of the problem you can. Then we have a starting point to help you.
If you are not mechanically inclined no problem. Start with a basic description of where the thing is and what it looks like.

My house sucks the is water dripping!!! help!?!?!?!
See,that is pretty useless.

We need more info in order to help you, but you seem to have made up your mind to sell it.
