Hi Kelley. In most cases when coolant leaks while you’re driving, it’s being forced out either of a coolant line with a tiny hole or a connection, due to pressure building up inside the coolant system. Most professional mechanics would complete a pressure test of the coolant system; which would force the fluid through the source of the leak. If this mechanic didn’t think to complete this step - you might want to have one of our professional mobile mechanics complete a coolant is leaking inspection and ask them to complete a pressure test to find the source of the leak.
