Good evening,
Can you upload a picture of where it is leaking?
Did you have anyone pressure test the system to determine the leak?

COOLING SYSTEM OPERATIONAL TEST
WITH THE ENGINE COLD
Remove the radiator cap/expansion tank cap and check the coolant level, refill as necessary.
Pressurize the cooling system and check for leaks
Inspect:
Radiator cooling fins are not blocked with debris (bugs, leaves, dirt)
Oil is not contaminated with coolant.
Check bottom side of oil filler cap, this is where coolant contamination often accumulates first.
Check oil with dip stick.
NOTE: Oil contaminated with coolant or water will have a creamy, light brown color.
Coolant temperature switches and sensors are connected properly.
Radiator hoses are not pinched.
START ENGINE AND ALLOW TO WARM UP
CAUTION: Observe the temperature gauges, warning lights, and expansion tank. Immediately turn off the engine if signs of overheating occur.
Check for coolant leaks.

Verify the thermostat opens and operates properly, see drawing.
After the thermostat opens, verify electric fan operation.
NOTE: The cooling fan should come on after the thermostat opens but before the engine overheats.
Check the exhaust for white smoke (evidence of coolant entering the combustion chamber)
Turn on the front windshield defroster and check for:
Coolant smell.
Windshield becomes fogged.
NOTE: These are both symptoms of a heater core leak.
Check coolant expansion tank level
Stop Engine.
WITH THE ENGINE "OFF"
Check for coolant leaks.
