Yes. A cooling-system problem can potentially cause the engine to become hot enough to damage the cylinder head and head gasket.
The vicious circle
Equally, a failed head gasket can allow coolant to escape or combustion gases to enter the cooling system, causing further overheating. It can become a rather expensive vicious circle.
Why early action helps
Driving with insufficient coolant can lead to overheating and ultimately serious engine damage, so catching the problem early makes a real difference.
