Engine Overheating
You
will find a coolant temperature gage on your
vehicle’s instrument panel. You may also
find
a
low
coolant warning light on your vehicle’s instrument panel
(5.7L
V8
engine only).
If
Steam
Is
Coming From
Your
Engine
I
Steam from an overheated engine can burn you
badly, even
if
you just open the hood. Stay away
from the engine if you see or hear steam coming
from it. Just turn it
off
and get everyone away
from the vehicle until it cools down. Wait until
there
is
no sign of steam or coolant before you
open the hood.
If you keep driving when your engine
is
overheated, the liquids in
it
can catch fire.
You or others could be badly burned. Stop
your
engine
if
it
overheats,
and
get
out
of
the
vehicle until the engine is cool.
NOTICE:
If
your engine catches fire because you keep
driving with no coolant, your vehicle
can
be
badly damaged. The costly repairs would not be
covered
by
your warranty.
