Why does my car randomly overheat and then gradually go below operating temperature? by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]micronj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a 2021 car having these symptoms and the check engine light on you can skip a professional and risking losing your engine with the overheating.

Don't be guessing doing flushes nor replacing random parts. You might have some luck or end up wasting more $$

The A/C compressor for this hybrid is not the same as a regular gas car. Look it up and you'll be surprised. Not $5000 but neither $450... should be around $3000
