Is it normal for the engine to get very hot after driving for a while?

It is completely normal for the engine to get very hot after driving for a while. Possible reasons for engine overheating include the following situations: Severe coolant deficiency: Failure to promptly inspect and replenish the coolant can easily lead to engine overheating, which is often caused by leaks in the radiator pipes and a severe lack of coolant. Water pump failure: If the water pump malfunctions, the water that conducts heat in the engine cannot circulate and renew in time. As a result, after driving for a while, the water temperature will rise rapidly, and the water temperature warning light on the dashboard will also illuminate. Cooling fan failure: A damaged cooling fan or a short circuit in the wiring can cause the fan to malfunction or operate at a slow speed, preventing the engine's heat from dissipating. This leads to an increase in engine temperature, and upon opening the engine compartment, you can naturally feel a significant amount of heat.
