I got a call at work yesterday, when my wife drove 2 miles to the mall and our 2000 sts started overheating. I ran up there in my work clothes, and observed that there was a slight coolant loss , with some dripped down near the bottom spoiler area. When she drove it home the engine showed running hot and dash message said something about engine overheating, going to idle speed, just as she pulled into the driveway. She said she heard a ticking sound coming from the radiator fan area. I ran the message system, diagnostic and couldn't find any error codes. If the cooling fans or thermostat went bad, shouldnt' there be an error code in the diagnostic codes?
