Why does my Jeep Grand Cherokee radiator overflow bubbles?

Jun 25, 2008 by CF | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

On a hot day with the A/C running, the radiator overflows and bubbles into the overflow tank after the engine is shutoff. I replaced the bad 195-degree thermostat, which fell apart, with a new 180-degree thermostat. I replaced the hoses and checked

Coolant doesn't evaporate in the engine, it can boil, but not evaporate. The reason coolant bubbles like that is because it's boiling. Marc R is right about the hot engine transfering heat to the coolant after it is turned off and raising the coolant
