Why is the coolant light on my Suzuki dashboard on?

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.

Can an antifreeze leak wait?

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 Suzuki Grand Vitara radiators need to be cleaned?

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

What is causing my Grand Vitara to overheat?

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

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

Air pockets in your Grand Vitara’s cooling system may cause a rumbling or boiling noise. You could also have a clogged radiator or simply need to replace the radiator cap.

When to Service Your 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara Cooling System

If you’re not sure what the purpose of a radiator is, it’s hard to tell when to have your Suzuki Grand Vitara radiator serviced. Nonetheless, it’s vital to know what to look for. The radiator is in the cooling system of your car, and it helps your engine temperature stay within a safe range. When the radiator isn't working properly, your engine can overheat and potentially break down.

Staying on top of routine radiator maintenance for your 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara is a huge factor in the longevity of your engine. To keep your radiator functioning, Suzuki 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. You could be on the verge of a radiator-induced engine breakdown if you notice a low coolant light or higher-than-normal engine temperatures on your dashboard, or if you spot coolant leaks coming from your car. Visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check at the first sign of one of these issues.
