Engine Cooling problem
2002 Hyundai Elantra 4 cyl Automatic 55000 miles

Hello,


I just had a few questions. I dont know much about cars and my engine is over heating and the car is leaking green fluid which I believe is antifreeze. I just got the radiator replaced yesterday and the system flushed cuz the monro service center said there was a hole in the radiatior. I went to drive it home last night and it started getting real hot again, and when I stopped I noticed the fluid on the ground. I have had a few friends tell me that it could be a stuck thermostat, but would that cause it to leak? Also what else could be wrong with it?

If you have had work performed on the cooling system and it was not done to completion, then you need to be in touch with the repair facility and get the car back to them so they can correct the issue.
