Can be a lots issues , radiator, water pump, or the thermostat, need to get that checked before you blow the engine... if the car heats up and comes back down may be a chance that is the thermostat... but you want to get that checked

Check for the fuse for the fan , or the connection, but usually the fan only turns on when the radiator gets hot to cool down

My car temperature gauge is going up and down, my engine and coolant is cool. My fan comes on I have no leaks could this be a sensor or a stuck thermostat?
