Just heard from the lady concerned that the garage did fill up the coolant, and next day, for the first time, the high temperature warning came on. She says she immediately coasted to a halt and the temperature returned to normal. The light was just on for a few seconds.

If they were just as generous with coolant as engine oil and topped it up to the top of the expansion chamber I suppose the expanded coolant had no-where to go.
