Exclamation Engine Overheating

I have a 2002 Liberty and my engine seems to be overheating. I recently had the radiator changed because it was leaking, but it overheats when I sit in traffic, with the heat on. Could this be a fan, or maybe a thermostat? Thanks

Re: Engine Overheating

Shorted coolant, or a bad coolant bleed procedure could cause the thremostat to stick.

Re: Engine Overheating

Is your electric cooling fan coming on when you're sitting in traffic? On the Grand Cherokees there is an occasional problem with the fan relay. I don't know where it's located on the Liberty...you may want to have a read in the GC section to compare.

Oh...and did it overheat in traffic before you had the radiator replaced?
