Consumer Description

WE HAVE A STRONG SMELL OF ANTIFREEZE IN OUR VEHICLE. IT IS CONSTANT, WHILE DRIVING OR STATIONARY, WE CAN SMELL IT INSIDE THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE OR OUTSIDE AROUND THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WHILE IT IS RUNNING. THE LEVEL OF ANTIFREEZE SLOWLY DECLINES. WE ALSO GET A FILM ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. WE HAVE REPORTED IT TO OUR LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. I AM CONCERNED BREATHING THIS IN MAY CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS AND WE HAVE A 3 YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER THAT IS IN THE VEHICLE WITH US.
