I just got my car back from the mechanic; I took it in because it was leaking antifreeze from the radiator, and it was overheating. I took it in, and they replaced the hose, but when I was driving home, it started to overheat again.

But I couldn't call the mechanic because he had aleardy left; he had stopped by the garage for an hour to catch up, being a Saturday, and called me and asked me if I wanted to pick up my car before he left.

Shit. I am SO FUCKING PISSED OFF. I'm going to rip some fucking heads off if I have to pay anymore to get it fixed. Luckily, I got a warranty.

Heh. All they did was replace a hose? What you got there, good buddy, is your average screwed up Thermostat. You can replace it easy and save 50 bucks. Remember: Ball goes down.

Possibly a bad thermostat, as Chardok said, but it's also possible you have a leak somewhere in the radiator. Is there still water in the radiator, or is it low/dry?
