Malibu LS 3.5L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 171,000 miles

The car has a minor coolant leak. Luckily, the coolant level sensor does work.

I just make sure to keep a jug of coolant in the trunk. Every few months, it'll bug me when I start the car, "LOW COOLANT". I then shut it off, pop the hood, and pour in some coolant. It's a pretty minor issue, being a minor leak, but since the car leaks every other fluid, too, it makes it annoying.
