Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 OLDSMOBILE ALERO GLS. THE CAR IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON IT. I NOTICED THAT THE COOLANT LIGHT KEPT GOING ON. I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR INITIALLY AND DID NOT SEE ANY LEAKAGE. I ADDED 50/50 DEX-COOL TO THE RESEVOIR. ALL WAS WELL FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS. THEN THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THIS CONTINUED FOR THE NEXT MONTH. I STARTED NOTICING LEAKAGE. AFTER REVIEWING WHERE THE LEAKAGE IS COMING FROM, I HAVE DETERMINED THAT IT IS RIGHT ABIVE WHERE THE THERMOSTAT WHERE THERE IS A BOLT THAT ATTACHES THE INTAKE MANIFOLD TO THE ENGINE.*AK
