Where is my antifreeze going?
I have a 96 chrysler concord 3.5 L and it is somehow losing antifreeze. There are no visible external leaks, and the oil doesn't appear to have antifreeze in it, as it is brown like it should be. There is no white smoke at all, so the coolant is not leaking into the cylinders. I replaced the thermostat about a week ago and it didn't help with the disappearing antifreeze. In the past 2 days we've used probably close to a gallon of coolant, and we have no idea of what the problem is and where the coolant is going. Any suggestions at all would be great.

Chances are it is leaking when you are driving. Have you checked the waterpump for evidence of a leak? It is on the passanger side. There is a weep hole under it that coolant can leak from if there is a bad seal or bearing.

Let me know.
