Does the Changan Alsvin’s radiator have a design flaw that leads to leakage under pressure o r long drives?

Users report leaks after long trips o r high-speed drives on highways. Is this because of pressure buildup o r poor radiator cap functionality?

Alsvin’s radiator appears to:

Build high pressure due to subpar radiator caps o r insufficient venting

Experience top tank separation o r bursting during long, high-speed highway drives

This is likely due to poor compatibility between the radiator cap pressure rating and the radiator’s actual endurance, hinting at design mismatches rather than isolated part failures.
