Please help. Why does my radiator light keep turning on?
I drive an automatic 2012 Toyota Prius. I’ve had two instances now where the radiator light turned on after I accelerated a little hard, one when I was coming home from work and now the other time this morning. These two events happened about 2 weeks from each other. After the light came on the first time, I checked my coolant level and it showed it was low so I filled it up, and it’s been fine so far until again I saw the red light pop for a few seconds, flash, then disappear. I’m not sure what I should do as I’ve also checked for leaks since then, or the smell of coolant and I’ve found none. I am going to take it in but I was curious about what this could be and I’m worried it’s going to take my car out for a few days as I have work later today and this whole weekend.
