The reason for a new car leaking antifreeze is that the connection between the antifreeze tank and the radiator is not tightly sealed, leading to antifreeze leakage. Hazards of antifreeze leakage to the car: Antifreeze leakage can cause engine failure. When the antifreeze level becomes insufficient due to leakage, the engine temperature will rise increasingly high, potentially leading to cylinder scoring in severe cases. Antifreeze leakage also poses a danger. The engine generates very high temperatures during operation, making it easy to ignite crystallized deposits. To avoid safety hazards, antifreeze residue should not be left on the car body. Methods to address antifreeze leakage in cars: The most common cause of antifreeze leakage in cars is the loose seal at the connection between the antifreeze tank and the radiator. Damage to components of the cooling system can result in coolant leakage and high engine temperatures. Replacing the damaged parts can resolve this issue. The radiator can be welded and repaired as needed.
