low coolant light keeps coming on; I add coolant, and next day the light comes on again; no leaks apparent on driveway; engine pressure test done--no white smoke; where is the coolant going; how seriuos is this problem;

It's probably being burned in the combustion chamber through a leaking intake manifold gasket. They are pretty notorious for that.
