What is a Radiator and What Does It Do?

Your radiator is one of the most important parts of your car’s cooling system. It is responsible for transferring heat away from the engine and into the air. The radiator is made up of a series of tubes and fins that transfer heat from the hot coolant that runs through it to the cooler surrounding air.
