Chastang Ford Coolant & Radiator Service Center

Your vehicle’s cooling system is essential for regulating engine temperatures and preventing overheating, especially in Houston’s hot and demanding climate. Over time, coolant breaks down and loses its ability to protect the engine from heat, corrosion, and freezing. Chastang Ford in Houston, TX provides professional coolant flushes and radiator service to ensure your engine stays protected and performs reliably during every commute, workday, and road trip.

Our certified technicians serve drivers from Houston, East Houston, Channelview, Pasadena, Spring, and nearby areas. Whether you're keeping up with routine maintenance or experiencing temperature-related issues, we offer fast, accurate cooling system service using OEM-approved fluids and equipment.

Why Coolant Service Is Important

Your cooling system works constantly to maintain the correct operating temperature and protect the engine from damaging heat. When coolant becomes old or contaminated, it loses its effectiveness and can lead to overheating, leaks, and internal corrosion.

Routine coolant service helps ensure:

Consistent engine temperature control.
Protection against overheating and engine failure.
Prevention of corrosion inside the radiator and coolant passages.
Improved heater and defroster performance.
Reduced likelihood of coolant leaks and system blockages.
Longer engine and water pump lifespan.

In severe heat like we experience in Houston, maintaining a properly functioning cooling system is even more critical to vehicle reliability.
