Coolant Service in Lancaster, PA
In order for your drives throughout Lancaster to be safe and enjoyable, it’s essential that your powertrain has sufficient levels of coolant. Our knowledgeable staff at Brubaker Chrysler Jeep has created the guide below to help you learn more about coolant service and determine if you need to schedule maintenance!
Coolant Purpose
Every time you cruise down Route 222, your engine produces large amounts of heat. To prevent your powertrain from overheating or even melting metal parts, coolant flows throughout the system to lower rising the temperatures and keep each component lubricated. Additionally, coolant prevents the engine from freezing during the winter months, which can also have negative long-term effects. Although coolant contains additives that prevent corrosion, it will naturally degrade over time. Leaks can cause insufficient levels, which often lead to performance issues and significant damage if left unaddressed. If you notice any problems or potential warning signs, be sure to address them sooner rather than later.
Warning Signs
There are a few things to look out for when it comes to low coolant levels. Many modern vehicles have a coolant dashboard warning light, which will urge you to check your levels and schedule service, if necessary. However, if this light does not show up, be on the lookout for other signs. Low coolant levels cause the powertrain to overheat, so keep an eye on your engine’s temperature gauge on the dashboard. Additionally, insufficient coolant can cause your air conditioning or climate control system to only circulate hot air. If your vehicle is experiencing a leak, you may notice a sweet smell coming from the vents or under the hood.
Service Timeline
To prevent serious, long-term damage, the technicians in our Service Department recommend you schedule coolant service once every two years or 30,000 miles, whichever comes first. However, the timeline for your Jeep Wrangler or Chrysler Pacifica may differ, so be sure to consult your Owner’s Manual for a more accurate estimate. Your lifestyle can also impact your timeline, meaning you’ll likely spend less time between appointments if you often use your vehicle’s towing capabilities. If you choose to schedule service at our location, our factory-trained maintenance professionals will be able to identify and fix any potential issues before your next trip to Lancaster County Central Park!

Very professional. I have never had any problems
“ Brubaker Chrysler has always serviced my Pacifica. I usually wait in an unused office room while they service it. They always explain any necessary repairs that need to be done, but they don't try to get me to do things that aren't needed. They are very professional. I have never had any problems. ”
Impressed by friendliness, and Knowledge!
“ Though I was surprised when I arrived at Brubaker as a new service customer recently moving to Lancaster by the small size of the overall operation, I was impressed by the friendliness and knowledge of the service staff. I waited in the rather time undistinguished customer room for 4 hours for $1800 of services for our 2021 Jeep Gladiator at 60,000 miles. We have bought and had serviced a number of Jeeps at Faulkner in Mechanicsburg which is a huge sophisticated operation. This is "mom and pop" for sure but ultimately satisfactory. ”

“ Dustin was awesome, worked hard to answer all of our questions. Truth be told, we were well along in our search for a new vehicle, and frustrated. Carfax popped up with this vehicle. Right Car, Right Options, Right Price. Brubakers worked with us until the financing was finalized. After receiving it, we we impressed how clean it was. VERY Clean. Getting ready for our first road trip. ”
Smooth Sale
“ The sale went very smoothly. Bill sat in the Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit 4XE explaining all the features. There was no rush. There are so many features in this vehicle. Definitely recommend the dealership. ”
Greeted in a Kind Manner
“ As soon as I walk on the lot I was greeted( by Manny) in a kind manner. I expressed what I was looking for and they showed me exactly what I was interested in. I didn’t want to make any rush decisions so I went home to think about if this was a purchase I wanted to make. I was contacted the next day and told about some other vehicles that I might be interested in if I was available to come in. I was busy at the time but I was treated so kind the day before I truly did not want to give my business to anyone else. I like how Manny was very knowledgeable of the vehicle and even help me on how to use my new iPhone. ( I’ve always had Samsung.) he also remembered our conversation from the day before and remembered my hobbies and explained why purchasing this vehicle would benefit me and my family. I’ve been to other dealerships n was treated poorly. I would definitely recommend buying a vehicle here to friends and family ”
