Signs Your Radiator Needs Repair

If you notice any unusual issues with your vehicle following a collision, it could be a sign that your radiator needs attention. If you see these indicators, you should have a professional take a look: overheating, leaking coolant, low coolant levels, and steam emanating from under the hood.

Overheating

Overheating is a sign that your radiator may be compromised, especially after a collision. If your vehicle’s temperature gauge spikes or the engine runs hotter than usual, it’s important to have your radiator checked immediately to prevent more severe damage.

Leaking Coolant

Leaking coolant is a clear symptom of radiator trouble, often noticeable by puddles of fluid under your car or a sweet-smelling liquid. If you observe any signs of coolant leakage, get this issue addressed swiftly to avoid overheating and potential engine damage.

Low Coolant Levels

Low coolant levels can indicate a leak or inefficiency within your radiator system, particularly following an impact. It’s essential to monitor your coolant level and consult with technicians if you notice it dropping unexpectedly.

Steam From the Hood

Steam emanating from under your hood is a clear indicator of radiator trouble, signaling that your vehicle is overheating and possibly leaking coolant. Observing steam should prompt an immediate inspection to prevent further damage to your engine and ensure your safety on the road.
