What does the coolant light on my Lexus dashboard mean?

Your engine might be about to overheat. If your low coolant light is on, pull over in a safe area and wait for your engine temperature to go down. Once it’s safe to do so, bring your car to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care to have the coolant system inspected.

What are the puddles in my driveway or garage floor?

It's better to get it fixed sooner than later. Antifreeze is toxic if consumed, but its smell can attract cats and dogs. Keep your whole family safe by repairing antifreeze leaks ASAP and thoroughly hosing down your parking spot to get rid of any lingering residue on the ground.

When should my Lexus RX350 radiator be cleaned?

It could be a good idea to have your Lexus RX350 radiator cleaned out a couple of times a year, maybe at the same time as a tire rotation or oil change.

My RX350 overheated! What can cause that?

Low coolant, a damaged cooling fan, a faulty water pump, a malfunctioning thermostat, or a clogged radiator could all cause your Lexus RX350 engine to overheat.

Why does the radiator in my RX350 sound like it’s rumbling or boiling?

If your radiator sounds like it's boiling or rumbling, you could have air pockets in the cooling system of your RX350. You might also have a damaged radiator cap (super easy to fix!) or a clogged radiator.

There’s rust in my RX350 radiator. Should I be worried?

Yes. If you have rust in your Lexus RX350 radiator, it could cause leaks, negatively impact cooling efficiency, and eventually lead to radiator failure. Left unaddressed, radiator rust can erode the cooling passages, creating cracks or small holes. Properly maintaining your radiator system can help stop it from rusting.

Is It Time for Service on My 2019 Lexus RX350 Cooling System?

If you’re not sure what the purpose of a radiator is, it’s hard to tell when to have your Lexus RX350 radiator serviced. Nonetheless, you need to know the signs of radiator malfunction. 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 2019 Lexus RX350 is essential for long-term engine health. To keep your radiator functioning, Lexus 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. 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. Visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check at the first sign of one of these issues.
