I was driving yesterday and suddenly engine temp rises and my engine light comes on and tells me to idle the engine due to the coolant overheating- i stopped and checked out the radiator after the engine cooled and, to make a long story short, realized that the coolant hose exiting the left base of the block came out!!! (1850 miles) This is a quick connect hose so I was able to put it back in and I have refilled the coolant. I have about 40 miles on it since then, but now I'm a little paranoid about it happening again. Would you guys recommend having a dealer check it out?
