Earlier this month I replaced my coolant reservoir due to it being cracked and leaking coolant. Now I have a new coolant leak. I came out from work today to find a puddle of coolant near my passenger tire. Any idea what would be causing this? Any input is greatly appreciated!!! Here’s a video attached

Hello,

I did not see the video that was attached,
on the expansion tank there are two hoses on the back side of the tank (see attached pics) those hoses have spring clamps, make sure those clamps are secured and the hoses are free of any rub marks or are split. There is also a sensor in the bottle as well also (pictured below) there should be an o ring type seal behind the threads where the coolant could be coming from.
Let us know what you find
