Was driving from New York to Ohio and experienced an overheating condition. 2.0 FS-DE, all stock, 217k miles, broken A/C compressor, A/C always turned off. I stopped the car when the temperature gauge went to 75%. Oil level was normal, and coolant fan was working, but I topped it off anyway, and...
