Some 2004 Honda Accord owners report experiencing overheating issues due to radiator cooling fan assembly failure, which can lead to serious engine damage if not addressed promptly. Common causes of overheating include coolant leaks, radiator fan failure, and faulty thermostats. A malfunctioning cooling system, particularly a failed radiator fan, can significantly contribute to engine overheating. Insufficient coolant levels, coolant leaks, clogged radiators, and faulty cooling fans are also reported factors in overheating incidents. The radiator cooling fan is essential for maintaining proper engine temperature by dissipating heat; its failure can directly result in overheating problems. To mitigate these issues, owners are advised to check for damage to the radiator cooling fan, replace any faulty components, and regularly monitor the engine temperature gauge to prevent future overheating.
