Consumer Description

Noticed a wet substance under the hood and a smell of oil/antifreeze (couldn’t determine either or) coming from vents prior to purchase. I was told it would be looked at and taken care of. After purchase I noticed a heavy leak under the vehicle and when i touched it, I again smelled the same oil/antifreeze. I took it back to the dealership and they replaced the radiator. It continued to produce a leak, and chose to stop and get a diagnosis and they said it was the oil cooler. I then chose to return it to the dealership for repair and they insist it was left over spillings from the previous repair. It still has that same wet substance dripping from under the vehicle. I’m concerned about the safety of my life if it is indeed the oil cooler.
