Mahalo mechanic expert Desmond Bryant shows you how to check coolant fluid levels in your car.

Coolant, also known as antifreeze, prevents your car from overheating. If your car overheats for too long, it could blow a head gasket, allowing the water and oil to mix, ruining the engine. You should check and change your coolant every two or three years.news.carjunky.com/how_stuff_works/how-to-check-…
