When to Service Your 2024 GMC Sierra 3500 HD Cooling System

It can be tough to know when to have your GMC Sierra 3500 HD radiator serviced if you don't know what it does, but it's still extremely important. Your radiator is part of the cooling system. It helps regulate engine temperature. If your radiator isn’t functioning like it’s supposed to, the engine can overheat – or worse, break down.

Staying on top of routine radiator maintenance for your 2024 GMC Sierra 3500 HD is essential for long-term engine health.

As soon as you see one of these symptoms, come to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.
