FAQs About Cooling System Repairs
How often should I have my cooling system checked?
At least once a year, or every 30,000–50,000 miles, depending on your make and model.
Can I drive with low coolant?
You shouldn’t. Low coolant can lead to overheating in minutes. If your level is low or you see leaks, come in right away.
How long does a cooling system repair take?
Minor issues like a coolant flush can be done in under an hour. Major repairs like a water pump or radiator replacement might take a few hours.
What type of coolant should I use?
Different vehicles require different coolant types. We use the right coolant for your vehicle, every time.
Is a coolant flush really necessary?
Yes! Over time, coolant breaks down and can cause rust, corrosion, or clogging inside your system.
