First of all, I want to say I don't know much about cars. Here's what I have. I have a 95 Grand-Am. Recently, I took the car to have it serviced because it was overheating and leaking coolant. As well as the temperature gauge kept raising even if there was coolant in the car, and when you turned it off, the coolant would gush out of the car. So I took it to Pep Boys (which I will never do again) and they replaced some hoses and the radiator. (They said it the old one had a hole in it.) So I get the car back and it runs fine. It's not over heating, the low coolant light is off, and everything is good. Then about a week later, the car started overheating again. But this time, there was not coolant leak, on the ground that is. The coolant seems to be disappearing from the car. I can't find a visible leak on the ground. So I take the car to my local Pontiac Dealer. I figure, hey the experts can fix the car. Well, needless to say, they have replaced some more hoses and said that should fix the problem. Well it hasn't. The car still overheats, but there still is not leak anywhere on the ground for the coolant. However, I am having to put coolant in the car every 4 or 5 days in order to keep it from overheating. Does anyone have any suggestions?
