- Important part of cooling system
- The hose coolant travels through to get between the radiator and engine
- Replace when cracked or leaking
Your Nissan depends on its cooling system to ensure your vehicle doesn't overheat. And this cooling system relies on a functioning, quality Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower) to operate how it's supposed to. As the coolant in your Nissan goes through the radiator and coolant system to you vehicle's engine, it travels through a Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower). It's crucial that your Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower) is free from damage, leaks, cracks, or bloating that could cause damage to your Nissan.
In time, the rubber in your vehicle's Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower) can get old and wear out. If this happens, the Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower) can become brittle and crack, causing coolant to leak out. If an excess amount of coolant leaks out, your vehicle's engine may not receive enough coolant to keep the engine temperature under control, potentially causing your Nissan to overheat. If overheating occurs, it could lead to added repairs and further damage to your vehicle.
In addition, the Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower) may bloat, which means the hose swells up. If low coolant causes the engine to overheat, it can cause superheated coolant to pass through the Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower), making the rubber in the hose bloat and swell, possibly causing additional cracks and damage to the Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower).
If you believe a Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower) on your Nissan needs to be exchanged, a visual inspection is often a good place to start. When working with the coolant system, always ensure the vehicle's engine and coolant system are completely cooled down, as the entire cooling system is pressurized, and super hot coolant may spray if the Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower) breaks.
When inspecting your Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower), look for dry-rot, cracks, swelling, or warping. Look for coolant leaks on the ground underneath the vehicle, specifically underneath where the Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower) is located on the vehicle.
In addition, look on your dashboard if you think your Radiator Coolant Hose (Lower) is bad. Look for a Low Coolant light or if the temperature gauge is displaying that your engine is running hot. Your owner's manual provides an overview of your vehicle's dashboard lights and what they mean.
