Our repair staff at Fairfield Cadillac has certainly seen their fair share of overheated vehicles. When experiencing an overheated car in Keene, NH, customers are often confused about why this situation is happening to them.
One reason that your car may be overheating involves your fluid levels. Both improper coolant levels and low levels of oil can cause your vehicle to become overheated. It is important that you keep up with maintenance services such as oil changes and coolant checks to prevent this cause of overheating.
Your vehicle's system may also have damage or a leak. This most commonly occurs when corrosion builds up in your radiator or radiator hose and causes a hole to form. Regular inspections can prevent this from occurring.
The vehicle's equipment may also be faulty. If your thermostat quits working, your car will not regulate your temperature correctly, which will cause it to overheat.
