    I had the same issue but it was from what seems to be a systemic factory issue of the lip of the radiator not being notched properly/gets broke. The hose kept slippin off and some fluid dripped out. I replaced the radiator and all hoses. Although extreme, it certainly solved the problem better than duct tape and a prayer. Just give the hoses a perusal. It's probably just as simple as that, unless you have a pinhole leak in the radiator itself. Good luck sir.

    Coolant message may apear because of loosing the liquid, but you can see that there is no liquid... or because of bad conection on the coolant level sensor.

    You cant get coolant message in case of mixing oil with water or someting like
