Wait for the engine to cool down, then have your coolant system checked immediately at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care.

When Does My 2006 Chrysler 300 Radiator Need Service?

Not sure what a radiator does? That makes it difficult to know when to have your Chrysler 300 radiator serviced, but it's still extremely important. The radiator is in the cooling system of your car, and it helps your engine temperature stay within a safe range. If your radiator isn’t functioning like it’s supposed to, the engine can overheat – or worse, break down.

Regular, proactive service on the radiator in your 2006 Chrysler 300 is a huge factor in the longevity of your engine. In fact, Chrysler recommends replacing coolant/antifreeze at specific intervals, but you can also take note of any signs your radiator is going bad. You could be on the verge of a radiator-induced engine breakdown 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.
