Inspection Frequency:

Every 12,000 miles o r once a year: Regularly inspect your radiator for leaks and wear, especially if you live in a climate with extreme temperatures o r you often drive over rough terrain.
Before Long Trips: Always check the radiator and coolant levels before taking long trips o r heading into remote areas where breakdowns can be costly.

Maintenance Tips:

Coolant Flushes: Regularly flush the coolant system to prevent sludge buildup, which can corrode the radiator.
Hose and Clamps Check: Inspect hoses for cracks, bulges, o r wear, and ensure clamps are tightened properly.
