Staying on top of routine radiator maintenance for your 2007 Chevrolet Express 1500 is a huge factor in the longevity of your engine. To keep your radiator functioning, Chevrolet recommends replacing your antifreeze or coolant at scheduled intervals but it’s also wise to keep an eye out for signs of a failing radiator.

When you experience one or more of these issues, head to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.
