What does an illuminated coolant temperature light mean for my Mitsubishi?

If the coolant light illuminates on your dashboard, your engine could be overheating. Pull over to a safe area and wait for the engine to cool down. Then, head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a coolant system check.

Is an antifreeze leak dangerous?

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.

Do Mitsubishi Lancer radiators need to be cleaned?

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

What can cause my Lancer to overheat?

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

My Lancer radiator sounds like it's rumbling or boiling! What's up?

There could be air pockets in your Lancer’s cooling system. You might also have a clogged radiator or faulty radiator cap (this last one is an easy fix!).

Should I be concerned about rust in my Lancer radiator?

Yes. If you have rust in your Mitsubishi Lancer 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.

When to Service Your 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer Cooling System

Not sure what a radiator does? That makes it difficult to know when to have your Mitsubishi Lancer radiator serviced, but it’s vital to know what to look for. Your radiator is part of the cooling system. It helps regulate engine temperature. 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.

Keeping up with regular radiator maintenance in your 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer is a huge factor in the longevity of your engine. In fact, Mitsubishi recommends replacing coolant/antifreeze at specific intervals, but it’s also wise to keep an eye out for signs of a failing radiator. You might be driving around (or about to be stranded) with a failing radiator if you see coolant leaks under your car, high engine temperatures, or a dashboard light that indicates low coolant. As soon as you see one of these symptoms, come to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.

What to Expect from Mitsubishi Lancer Radiator Repair

What happens during a radiator repair service? At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start by performing a thorough inspection of your Mitsubishi Lancer cooling system. We then do a machine-powered radiator exchange, replenish flushed chemicals, sealants, and lubricants, and then pressure check for leaks.

Radiator problems often go hand in hand with water pump problems. The water pump is one part on your 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer engine that you can't put off repairing or replacing. This vital part keeps coolant moving through the engine, hoses, and radiator. Without it, your engine won't maintain its optimal temperature. Our technicians can take a look at your radiator’s components to help make sure everything is in working order. From the radiator cap to the heater core, your 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer is in good hands at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Every job we do is backed by our Triple Promise: Fixed Right, Priced Right, Right on Time.
