Chrysler 200 overheating issue occurring after 10 minutes of driving with coolant loss and small radiator drip on Chrysler 200

Problem overview

Some Chrysler 200 owners report experiencing overheating issues after about 10 minutes of driving, often accompanied by coolant loss and a small radiator drip. These problems may stem from insufficient coolant levels, which can lead to overheating, or from coolant leaks indicated by a small radiator drip, potentially from hoses or the radiator itself. A malfunctioning thermostat may also contribute to the issue by failing to regulate coolant flow properly. Additionally, some owners find that a clogged radiator obstructs heat dissipation, while faulty cooling fans may not adequately cool the engine, exacerbating the overheating problem. To mitigate these concerns, it is advisable for owners to regularly check coolant levels, inspect for leaks, and ensure that the thermostat and radiator are functioning correctly.
