Whether we\u2019re talking about your car, truck, or tractor, there is one very important component that helps to keep vehicles cool enough to operate\u2014the radiator. This radiator functions by removing heat from the engine through coolant, moving the coolant throughout a series of coils. This cooled air then flows back into your engine to keep it from overheating.<\/p>\n
If your radiator is leaking, that means you\u2019re losing coolant. This will cause your vehicle\u2019s engine to overheat, and break down. Some individuals believe they can still drive with a damaged or malfunctioning radiator, but this really isn\u2019t safe. A leaking radiator is one of the most common problems our mechanics get called out for\u2014and you really should turn to a pro for this kind of problem.<\/p>\n
Simply put, operating your vehicle with a radiator leak occurring will cause significant damage to <\/em>that vehicle. Though it depends on how severe the leak is, it\u2019s possible that a professional mechanic will be able to seal it. However, you should prepare for the possibility the radiator will need to be replaced altogether. Since you won\u2019t know until you have a pro look at it, we urge you not to drive until you\u2019ve done so.<\/p>\n The reason for this is because the more you drive with a malfunctioning radiator, the worse damage can occur to your engine. You could find yourself facing a much more severe and costly repair than what you started with. Driving with a leaking radiator or some other radiator issue will <\/em>cause the engine to overheat, triggering many other related problems.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s face it, this happens! You may be in your vehicle and unaware anything is wrong\u2014until all of the sudden you see steam rising out of your vehicle\u2019s hood, signaling that your engine has overheated. The first thing you should do is turn on your heater! Obviously this seems counter-intuitive given the problem is too much <\/em>heat, but what this does is transfers some of the heat load off\u00a0the engine, hopefully preventing further damage.<\/p>\n If you don\u2019t see your engine\u2019s temperature go down after this, and if you haven\u2019t already, be sure to pull over to a safe location in your vehicle as soon as you can. Open the hood to let the excess heat out, but don\u2019t open the radiator cap (you can burn yourself doing so). Call for a tow truck or roadside assistance to get your vehicle off the road, and then call our radiator professionals to have your vehicle\u2019s overheating problem inspected.<\/p>\n Our team of expert radiator professionals provide comprehensive repair and rebuild services, and we also replace radiators if a repair isn\u2019t going to get your vehicle back to 100%.
