Can I Continue Driving After Turning Off the Engine and Checking the Coolant?

[VonLincoln]

No. When the car prompts you to turn off the engine and check the coolant, it indicates that the coolant level is low, causing the engine to overheat. Additionally, issues such as poor grounding of the coolant pump, coolant pump failure, or excessive dirt in the radiator can also lead to this situation. Related to coolant level: In this case, you need to check whether the coolant level is normal, whether the radiator fan is functioning properly, whether the radiator is severely clogged with dirt, and whether there is corrosion or poor contact in the coolant pump's grounding. Coolant: Coolant, also known as antifreeze, is a liquid composed of antifreeze additives, additives that prevent metal corrosion, and water. It must possess properties such as antifreeze capability, corrosion resistance, thermal conductivity, and resistance to deterioration.
