Have you ever wanted to
know more about your auto repairs,

00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:05.280
but were afraid to
ask your mechanic?

00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:08.080
This brief video provides
you with information designed to

00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:11.525
help you make the right
decisions about your auto repairs.

00:00:11.525 --> 00:00:14.005
The radiator is a
primary component of a vehicle's

00:00:14.005 --> 00:00:16.910
cooling system. It dissipates
heat in the coolant,

00:00:16.910 --> 00:00:18.530
and keeps your car
from overheating.

00:00:19.150 --> 00:00:20.430
To maintain your
cooling system,

00:00:20.430 --> 00:00:22.670
it's important that the
radiator is working properly

00:00:22.670 --> 00:00:24.850
and efficiently removing
heat from the engine.

00:00:25.630 --> 00:00:26.835
So if you're overheating,

00:00:26.835 --> 00:00:29.155
colon is not moving effectively
throughout the system,

00:00:29.155 --> 00:00:31.495
have your service advisor
take a look at your radiator.

00:00:32.915 --> 00:00:34.435
Without a functioning radiator,

00:00:34.435 --> 00:00:36.550
the rest of the cooling
system will be affected.

00:00:36.550 --> 00:00:37.850
And might need to be replaced.

00:00:39.110 --> 00:00:41.750
Because a leaking radiator will cause
the engine to not get the

00:00:41.750 --> 00:00:44.465
proper amount of coolant.
And if ignored long enough,

00:00:44.465 --> 00:00:47.205
the engine will overheat
leading to costly repairs.

00:00:50.465 --> 00:00:51.745
From a safety standpoint,

00:00:51.745 --> 00:00:54.630
there is a slight safety risk
an overheated engine might

00:00:54.630 --> 00:00:55.530
leave you stranded.

00:00:58.310 --> 00:01:00.470
But there is a high
environmental impact because

00:01:00.470 --> 00:01:02.755
leaking coolant is harmful
for children, pets,

00:01:02.755 --> 00:01:03.735
and other animals.
