Radiator Service and Repair Near Me in Linwood | Garber Chevrolet Linwood

It doesn’t take a stretch of the imagination to realize that a vehicle’s engine gets hot. Really hot. After all, an engine is composed of several components moving at the same time to propel the vehicle forward. That’s where the vehicle’s radiator comes in – all that motion generates a ton of heat and the radiator is part of the cooling system that keeps it from overheating.

A radiator keeps an engine from overheating by distributing coolant throughout the engine, keeping the various components at a comfortable temperature so they can run optimally. If the vehicle’s radiator becomes damaged or stops working, it can no longer regulate the temperature, which leads to overheating.

If the temperature gauge starts going into the red, don’t ignore it. As soon as you notice the engine is overheating, pull over immediately and turn it off. Running the engine when it’s too hot can cause it to seize up and cause damage to vital engine components like the pistons and cylinders. If the damage from overheating is bad enough, the entire engine can be destroyed.

Don’t take that risk. If your vehicle’s engine is overheating, bring it into Garber Chevrolet Linwood as soon as possible to have the radiator inspected. Click the button below to schedule your service appointment today.
