Are rising engine temperatures causing rising stress levels for you? Cool it! Schedule your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD radiator service or repair today.
If you’re not sure what the purpose of a radiator is, it’s hard to tell when to have your Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD radiator serviced. Nonetheless, it’s vital to know what to look for. As part of your car’s cooling system, your radiator helps keep engine temperature regulated. So, what happens when the radiator isn’t working quite like it should? You guessed it – your engine overheats, and it may even break down completely.
Staying on top of routine radiator maintenance for your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD is crucial to keep your engine in the best possible shape for years to come. In fact, Chevrolet recommends replacing coolant/antifreeze at specific intervals, but you can also take note of any signs your radiator is going bad. You might be driving around (or about to be stranded) with a failing radiator if you notice leaking coolant, overheating, or an illuminated low coolant dashboard light. When you experience one or more of these issues, head to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.

When you come to Firestone Complete Auto Care, we’ll begin your radiator repair with an in-depth inspection of the cooling system in your Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD.

Issues with your radiator often coincide with a malfunctioning water pump. The water pump is one part on your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD engine that needs to be addressed ASAP once an issue is identified. The role of the water pump is to keep coolant circulating in your engine, radiator, and hoses. If it isn’t functioning properly, your engine won’t be able to stay within its optimal temperature range. Our technicians can take a look at your radiator’s components to ensure everything is operating as it should. From the radiator cap to the heater core, your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD is in good hands at Firestone Complete Auto Care. After all, we know it’s not just a car. It’s your car.
