Cap was leaking. Smelled like someone pissed on my engine. Dealer replaced cap, hopefully this will fix it, this was before the recall. At least it was not my 8 time like another person. If it leaks again I will replace with aftermarket I can't have my van at the dealers for 2 days for that.

Noticed puddle of red fluid in the driveway near the front of the vehicle. The radiator cap was found to be the cause, and was replaced the same day.

Did not know of anything, until wife asked if it was leaking coolant. Said she could smell it t a stop light. After scoping up and all around the engine area found a minute fracture at the base of the Y heater hose assy. dealership only one to offer the part $150 plus tax. Drain the coolant out for about 20 minutes, than remove the hose out. replace hose and take hi temp insulate wrap around it. This should be a recalled item. Inhaling the fumes could be toxic to elderly and young children/infants alike. Only leaks once the thermostat is opened up.
