There are at least several possibilities: 1) the top hose blew off as a consequence of overheating and thus a fault still exists in the cooling system causing the present, continued overheating; 2) the cooling system is not faulty but presently simply has trapped air, blocking normal coolant circulation; and 3) when the hose blew off the engine overheated causing damage to the thermostat. Apart from the trapped air issue, some common causes of overheating include a faulty thermostat, a plugged radiator, collapsed hoses, and a faulty water pump or drive belt. Certain engine faults, such as a leaking head gasket or poor engine running condition can also cause overheating. If you desire that the root cause of the overheating problem be pinpointed by a certified Mechanic, dispatched by YourMechanic right to your location, please request an engine overheating diagnostic and the responding certified mechanic will get this resolved for you.
