Driving on the highway, the screen on the dash says the AC (it is March in Michigan) has been turned off due to Excessive Engine Heat. We stop and check under the hood. Nothing seems to be wrong. 30 minutes later drive on. Same issue. Next day car is okay, almost, starts again after driving for 20 minutes. After an hour it is back to normal. Had the thermostat changed once before because of this in another car. Is it the thermostat or a sending unit?
Update from Apr 1, 2017: Since I first put my complaint in the car has had the issue come on the dashboard 5 times. And gone off 5 times. Never the same thing making it come on or go off. The car runs fine. The outside temperature can be in the 20s and as high at 60s. Sunny or raining does not make a difference. Have had it scheduled to go in the shop but on the way it stops doing it. Been driving the highway and around town so speed or stop n go driving does not matter either.
