How does a cooling system work?
Your vehicle’s cooling system circulates coolant through the engine and radiator to prevent overheating, but over time, mineral deposits can build up and create pressure that damages critical components like the water pump and thermostat. When your cooling system shows signs of wear or corrosion, Rick & Ray’s Auto Plaza provides comprehensive services including cooling system repair, water pump replacement, and complete system inspection to keep your vehicle running smoothly.
How do I know if my automobile needs cooling system service?
Recognizing the early warning signs of cooling system problems can save you from costly engine damage and roadside breakdowns. Watch for these common indicators that your car may need professional cooling system service:
- High temperature gauge readings – Your dashboard temperature gauge consistently runs hot, indicating low coolant levels or system malfunction
- Visible coolant fluid leaks – Bright green, yellow, or pink fluid puddles under your parked vehicle signal cooling system issues
- Discoloration or corrosion – Staining around engine components from leaked coolant that has evaporated, leaving behind mineral deposits and potentially causing rust on metal surfaces
- Steam from under the hood – Visible steam indicates your engine is overheating due to cooling system failure
If you are experiencing several of these signs, you should bring your car or truck in for a cooling system service immediately. If you live in Tarrant County, you can come to Rick & Ray’s Auto Plaza.
