Beat the Summer Heat: Why Your Car’s Cooling System Needs Attention
May 29, 2025
Summers in North Texas get really hot, and it’s not just tough on people—it’s tough on cars too.
Your car’s cooling system helps keep the engine from getting too hot. When temperatures hit the triple digits, your cooling system has to work extra hard. If something isn’t working right, your engine could overheat and leave you stuck on the side of the road.
Signs of cooling system problems include your engine running hotter than normal, seeing leaks under your car, stange smells, and steam. Even if you don’t notice anything wrong, it’s a good idea to have your cooling system checked before summer gets too hot.
At David’s Automotive Repair, we check your radiator, hoses, coolant levels, and water pump
to make sure everything is working like it should. We want to help you stay safe and worry-free on all your summer adventures.

Belts keep systems like your alternator and power steering working. Hoses carry important fluids like coolant and help your engine stay at the right temperature. Over time, heat and wear can cause them to crack , fray , or leak . If a belt breaks or a hose bursts while you’re driving, it could lead to engine damage or even leave you stuck on the side of the road. That’s why it’s smart to have them checked regularly—especially before long trips or hot summer days. If you’re unsure about the condition of your belts and hoses, we’re here to help with a quick check. Call 972-625-1836 to make a reservation to have your belts and hoses inspected by a certified technician.

High temperatures can cause fluids to thin out , break down faster, or even evaporate —putting your car at risk for overheating or part failure. If your coolant is low, your engine can overheat. If your oil is dirty or your transmission fluid is old, important parts may not be properly protected. The summer heat makes staying on top of fluid checks more important than ever. At David’s Automotive Repair, we’ll inspect all your fluids to make sure your vehicle is ready to take on the summer. Call 972-625-1836 or go online to reserve your visit. Let’s make sure your vehicle stays cool, clean, and reliable all season long.
