Components like your radiator, radiator hoses, and water pump use coolant to keep the engine running at a safe operating temperature by absorbing and dissipating heat. Your cooling system also plays a role in heating your vehicle’s interior, as your blower motor moves air that’s been warmed by coolant from the fins of the heater core through your vents. A properly maintained cooling system will help your vehicle run its best and prevent the engine from overheating, which can result in engine damage or head gasket failure. [LEARN MORE]( [Failing Cooling System Signs] [Overheating] Overheating Overheating occurs when a vehicle’s cooling system fails to regulate the engine’s temperature, often caused by issues like low coolant levels, a malfunctioning thermostat, a faulty water pump, or a clogged radiator. This can lead to serious engine damage, decreased performance, and even complete engine failure if not promptly addressed. [Shop Water Pumps]( [Shop Radiators]( [Coolant Leaks] Coolant Leaks Coolant leaks happen when the fluid designed to regulate the engine’s temperature escapes from the cooling system, commonly causing antifreeze or coolant puddles. Checking hoses for signs of cracks or damage, or tracing leaks from below the vehicle, is often the easiest way to narrow down the location of a leak. Low coolant levels should be topped off and the leak should be investigated and repaired as soon as possible to limit the risk of overheating. [Shop Heater Hoses]( [Shop Radiator Hoses]( [Heater Blows Cold Air] Heater Blows Cold Air This issue is not as common, but can be easily identified if your temperature gauge reads low or if your heater isn’t blowing warm air. This is most commonly caused by low coolant levels or thermostat failure. The engine may be slow to reach operating temperature or may never heat up as much as it should, which can cause performance problems and prevent your heater from blowing warm air. [Shop Antifreeze/Coolant]( [Shop Thermostats]( [Temperature Fluctuation] Temperature Fluctuation This issue can often be identified by a temperature gauge that rises and falls unpredictably. It’s most commonly caused by low coolant levels, air pockets in the cooling system, or a malfunctioning thermostat. When filling your cooling system, be sure to use the coolant specified for your vehicle. If you use concentrated coolant instead of a pre-mixed 50/50 formula, use distilled water in equal proportion to the coolant for the proper ratio.
