Nope, there was never an investigation.Did anything ever come of this sugggesting a recall for this coolant part prone to leaks?
And I still haven't seen any reports of cooling tubes in the battery modules leaking.
That leak is probably not coming from the battery pack, so would not suggest that the "hammer controversy" was legit.My car was made one month before 2016, and is leaking coolant from under the front of the car smack dab in the middle of the axle. This car still has low mileage so this hammer controversy seems legit.
You likely have a leaking value or pump. Or it could be a hose or the radiator. (Road debris can make pinholes in the radiator, though it isn't very common.)
