Radiator repair and maintenance are essential for keeping your vehicle’s cooling system operating efficiently and preventing engine overheating. The radiator plays a critical role by releasing excess heat from the engine coolant as it circulates through the system. Over time, issues such as leaks, clogs, or corrosion can develop, reducing the radiator’s effectiveness and potentially leading to serious engine damage.

Routine radiator service includes checking coolant levels, inspecting hoses and connections for leaks, and performing system flushes to remove old coolant and debris. A radiator flush is particularly important, as it helps prevent corrosion and removes contaminants that can restrict coolant flow.

Common signs that your radiator may need attention include an overheating engine, visible coolant leaks beneath the vehicle, consistently low coolant levels, or steam coming from under the hood. Ignoring these warning signs can result in severe engine damage and costly repairs.

During a radiator service, a technician will thoroughly inspect the cooling system, test for leaks, and ensure the radiator is functioning properly. If needed, damaged components will be repaired or replaced. Proper radiator care is vital for protecting your engine, avoiding expensive breakdowns, and keeping your vehicle running smoothly and reliably.
