I have a 04 Kia Sorento. Recently the heat stopped working consistently, and I've noticed a coolant leak that appears to be coming from the front of the passenger side door. Any ideas?

It appears to be leaking under the car where the front of the passenger side door is. It might be leaking and travelling to this spot, but that's were it is leaking.

Do you smell antifreeze while engine is running on that side-if so check the heater hoses
