hello! I bought a 93 lexus about a month ago and had to get the radiator replaced and my front suspension done. It drove perfectly until yesterday. I drove it about 50 miles and it suddenly started overheating and antifreeze was bubbling out of the reservoir. What could this possibly be?

rates vary accorss u.s. but i would thinkab otu $1500 or in that range. but before you go into shock have it checked to see what the problem is first. it may be a smaller item like a hose broken as well.......
