Radiator Replacement
When your vehicle exhibits issues with the radiator, it is extremely important to have it inspected immediately!
The friction generated by the multitude of moving parts in an engine creates a substantial amount of heat. The job of the radiator is keep the engine cooled down. Everything under the hood is cooled down by the radiator, which helps to prevent overheating and serious issues from developing. The radiator pumps a mixture of water and antifreeze through the engine chambers, absorbing the excess heat to keep your engine cool and running efficiently.
Coolant, or antifreeze, is also distributed through the heat exchanger when you use the vehicle’s heating system. The accumulation of miles leads to deposits that can clog the cooling system and collect in your vehicle’s radiator. These deposits and the overheating they cause is the most common cause of engine damage and breakdowns.
