My ford escape 2008 keeps overheating. I've had the thermostat, radiator, and water pump all recently replaced. The mechanic I go to hasn't indicated that there is a leak in the hose, which i replaced last year. I feel like this guy is giving me a run for my money. After the radiator was replaced, the car would still drain fluid and I had to constantly add water and coolant every day or two. The night after replacing the water pump, I couldn't even make it back home. The car began to overheat while driving then began making a high pitched hissing noise. I pulled over and sure enough all the coolant was gone. I let it cool and added more to make it home. I was able to drive about 5 minutes or so before it started again and my check engine light came on. I didn't want to risk it so I called a tow truck. My mechanic is now giving me the run around about coming back out to fix it. Any ideas on what it could be? At this point, anything helps. Thanks in advance
