Final answer:
Both statement A and B are correct as either of these issues can prevent the coolant from returning to the radiator.
Step-by-step explanation:
A coolant recovery system in a vehicle is designed to collect and store coolant that may overflow from the radiator when the engine is hot. If coolant does not return to the radiator when the engine cools, there are two possible causes:
- The transfer hose may be plugged.
- The filler neck soldered joint could be cracked.
Both statements A and B are correct, as either of these issues can prevent the coolant from returning to the radiator.
