Why is my car losing coolant but not overheating?
I’ve noticed that my car has been leaking coolant but I thought that meant the car would overheat. Why is my car losing coolant but not overheating?

If your car is losing coolant but not yet overheating, you have caught the problem at the best possible time. Oftentimes the problems that cause a car to overheat begin long before the car shows any signs of overheating.
There are a number of reasons why your car could be losing coolant, here are some of the most common:
- Radiator cap leak
- External or internal coolant leak
- Cracked heater core
- Holes in the hoses or radiator
Overheating is one of the most common causes of car breakdowns and a loss of coolant will certainly lead to that if left unchecked. The best thing to do is bring your car to a mechanic so they can find out what the problem is and fix it.
