This leak can cause overheating!
SUV's have heat and A/C controls in the front of the vehicle on the dash. However, many of these SUV's have heat and A/C controls in the rear (backseat) also. These vehicles have heater cores both in the front and the rear of the vehicle. This means coolant circulates from the engine all the way to the rear heater core.
