My car was at idle at the store for less than 5 minutes and went into safe mode the mechanic said my active grill motor went out which caused my head gasket to blow without warning. I owe over $10000 on my car and now i have a $4000 shop bill. My car has never overheated not even at that time so my head gasket shouldn't be blown! Please help!
