Why is the coolant light on my Dodge dashboard on?

Pay attention to the temperature gauge and lights on your dashboard. If a low coolant warning light comes on or your dashboard temperature gauge keeps rising, it’s likely that your engine is about to overheat (and could leave you stranded on the road). Wait for the engine to cool down, then have your coolant system checked immediately at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Is an antifreeze leak dangerous?

Don’t ignore puddles on your driveway or garage floor. If you see a green, bright orange, or pink fluid puddling under your car (it might be sticky, too), it could be antifreeze that’s leaking out of the engine. Antifreeze has a sweet, attractive smell to cats and dogs (and it’s highly toxic to them), so look out for your pets! Repair any leaks as soon as possible, then carefully wash away any remaining fluid that’s left behind on the driveway or garage floor.

When should my Dodge Dynasty radiator be cleaned?

To keep your Dodge Dynasty radiator running well, it’s wise to get it cleaned out a few times a year.

My Dynasty overheated! What can cause that?

If your Dodge Dynasty engine overheats, it could be because of a clogged radiator, a damaged thermostat, a faulty cooling fan, a malfunctioning water pump, or low coolant levels.

What is making my Dynasty radiator sound like it’s boiling or rumbling?

If your radiator sounds like it's boiling or rumbling, you could have air pockets in the cooling system of your Dynasty. You might also have a damaged radiator cap (super easy to fix!) or a clogged radiator.

Is rust in my Dynasty radiator bad?

Yes. Having rust in your Dodge Dynasty radiator can cause leaks, a reduction in cooling efficiency, and even radiator failure. If rust is left untreated, it can corrode the radiator's cooling passages, causing small cracks or holes that can significantly impact the radiator's ability to function. To help prevent rust from becoming a major issue, it's important to properly maintain your radiator system.

Is It Time for Service on My 1990 Dodge Dynasty Cooling System?

Not sure what a radiator does? That makes it difficult to know when to have your Dodge Dynasty 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. 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 1990 Dodge Dynasty is essential for long-term engine health. Dodge recommends that you replace coolant (also called antifreeze) at certain intervals, but it’s also wise to keep an eye out for signs of a failing radiator. Your radiator could be close to causing an engine breakdown if you see coolant leaks under your car, high engine temperatures, or a dashboard light that indicates low coolant. When you experience one or more of these issues, head to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.
