I have had the car to the shop twice, both times the coolant tube had disconnected due to improper original connection.

Coolant leaking from behind the engine, metal coolant tube corroded from water pump to heater, bad engineering to put a metal tube where it will be exposed to dirt/salt/water. replaced tube. repaired at local garage, not dealer.

Told them I had a coolant leak. They fixed the intake manifold gasket. It still leaks. When I brought this to their attention (at Fury Motors, MN) they said it didn't come up on their diagnostics. I asked if checking the radiator and hoses (whatever goes in and out of the coolant system) would be logical to check. We brought it in.
They said there "might be a pinhole leak" but insisted he had fixed the problem. It is still leaking.
Suggestion? We spend another $200. To see if it will fix the leak "we say is there".
