Servicing the cooling system helps prevent rust and corrosion and keeps your vehicle from freezing or over-heating.
A vehicle's anti-freeze/coolant lowers the freezing point and raises the boiling point of water. Coolant circulates through the engine, absorbing excess heat, preventing rust or corrosion from forming on internal parts and lubricates the water pump. If anti-freeze/coolant is not replaced, rust will corrode the metal parts of the cooling system and may lead to expensive repairs to the radiator and the water pump.
