7 Causes of a Coolant Leak: How to Fix It & Repair Cost

The leak could be from the oil cooler itself or the outlet hose on the back of it
Has coolant leakage been at all a common problem with jls, and if so, what might be the cause I can't say that i've read of it anywhere in this forum before, and since changing the oil in october, there has been absolutely no work done on my jeep by either myself or anyone else until the last few days.
