There are other things at play to keep your engine from overheating and they are cheaper than radiators. First make sure the radiator cooling fan is coming on. Cost to do this "Free" Next you may want to replace the thermostat. It may be stuck closed or partially closed. Cost about $8 and your time. Either of these two will cause overheating and are more likely to be the cause than the radiator. A collapsed radiator hose will cause overheating also but rare. Hope this helps

Driving your vechile with very little coolant fluid will it damage vechile?
Driving with low coolant in the radiator will allow air into the cooling system, and result in overheating. Severe overheating will damage the engine, and could lead to costly repairs. A low coolant reservoir (the plastic bottle) indicates you are loosing fluid somewhere. It's cheaper to find out where, then replace an engine. Caution! NEVER open the radiator on a hot engine. The heated water is well over 200 degrees and under pressure, and could severely burn you. Wait until the engine is cool to the touch and the hoses can be easily squeezed, indicating that the pressure has bled down enough to open the radiator safely.
