What causes a Nissan Maxima radiator to overheat?

A Nissan Maxima's radiator can overheat for a number of reasons:

  • Dirt and debris building up inside the radiator, restricting airflow
  • Air locks or air pockets in the cooling system
  • Thermostat stuck in the closed position
  • Faulty water pump, blocking coolant circulation
  • Low engine oil levels
  • Blocked head gasket
  • Clogged catalytic converter

It can be extremely dangerous to drive your Nissan Maxima with an engine that is overheated, with failure to replace the radiator possibly resulting in permanent damage to your vehicle's internal parts. To avoid costly repairs, book an appointment with the experts at your nearest mycar store.
