My wife has a 99' Isuzu Rodeo with about 45k on it and a couple of months ago her head gaskets blew. The dealership fixed it (still under warranty), but I could have swore I still smelled coolant. The check engine light came on and we took it back in to have it checked. They said it was fine and we were probably smelling the air freshner!!! Then two weeks later the head gaskets blew out again. I think the head has to be warped and putting on new gaskets won't fix it. Anyway the service dept. said they are debating weather or not to fix the gaskets or replace the engine. What should I do to ensure it gets fixed the right way?
