There are specific responsibilities that come with the purchase of a car. A lot goes into preventing your vehicle from aging too rapidly or stalling on the highway. It is your duty to keep your vehicle reliable and in good condition. This can only be achieved through proper care and maintenance. The responsibility is not as expensive or time-consuming as it is set out to be. Here are a few things to check to keep your car in top shape.
Engine coolant, also called antifreeze, helps the car radiator regulate safe temperatures so that it will not overheat. The engine heats this anti-freezing liquid, which then stimulates a cooling effect through the radiator. Low coolant levels cause radiator temperature to drop unexpectedly, which, in turn, will solidify the fluid. Driving a vehicle in this condition can result in overheating, or worst cause engine failure. Motorists can avoid these inconvenient car situations if they perform routine coolant level checks and do refills when necessary.
