When I drive for a long period of time my car will over heat. Than when I turn my car off the fan will kick in very loud. What is the problem with my vehicle?

Hi tza,

Most probably you have coolant shortage in the radiator. Check for leakage and radiator cap worn seals.

If there is no shortage of coolant, you need to test thermostat, water pump and radiator.

Worst case scenario is a head gasket problem.

If the fans are noisy, it is time to replace their motors.
