Consumer Description

FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS (APPROXIMATELY) MY CAR HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING ANTIFREEZE LEAKS. MY VEHICLE HAS ROUGHLY 71,850 MILES AND IT IS A 2014 FORD ESCAPE. ABOUT ONCE A MONTH MY INFO LIGHTS COMES ON SIGNALING MY ENGINE COOLANT IS LOW. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A COUPLE LOCATIONS AND NO ONE CAN FIND A LEAK. IN FEBRUARY THE MECHANIC SUGGESTED I REPLACE THE CAP IN CASE IT IS EVAPORATING. I REPLACED THE CAP END OF APRIL AND ONCE AGAIN IN MAY THE LIGHT CAN BACK ON. I FILL THE COOLANT TO THE MAX LINE, BUT AFTER A MONTH IT IS AT THE MIN LINE OR SOMETIMES LOWER. I SAW THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE, BUT THIS SEEMS TO BE A SERIOUS ISSUE AS MY CAR CAN FAIL WHILE I AM DRIVING AROUND WITH MY INFANT CHILD IN THE CAR. NO MECHANIC CAN SEEM TO HELP ME. *TR
