What Is Coolant Fluid?
Despite how the name sounds, your coolant fluid has nothing to do with your AC. Coolant keeps the engine from overheating while you are driving. Over time, coolant can become dirty. This can lead to clogs in your coolant system which in turn damages your engine. Low levels of coolant can mean poor performance for your vehicle. For mild cases, this means that your engine will overheat while driving. The more severe this overheating becomes, the worse the damage will be. Coolant systems that go without a fluid exchange can cause engines to seize up and even catch fire. Low levels of coolant can also cause to your engine failing while you are driving.
Signs of Low or Dirty Coolant
The most common signs for low or dirty coolant are, thankfully, fairly obvious. The clearest sign is an engine overheating. This can be right after your vehicle starts in severe cases or after it has been running for a few minutes. An overheating engine can cause the vehicle to feel hot to the touch or even seize up during driving. This can also lead to fires in extreme circumstances. Skipping out on a coolant fluid exchange runs the risk of causing extensive damage to your vehicle. We recommend coming in every 15,000 miles to have our coolant fluid exchanged.
