I have a new 2023 Taos Highline…less than 2 months. A bit more than 2.7 K miles. No problems at all

I guess have to prepare for this when I reached that mileage. Thanks a lot.

Coolant over consumption seems to be an abnormal behaviour. Some indicates that this might be a header gasket issue .Having read all these comments from other owners, I'm starting to regret buying this model.

I bought mine with 22000km on it...I'm up to 25000km and haven't had any issues that I didn't cause myself(knock on wood). Note to self after reconnecting battery go for a drive before panicking that every dashboard light is lit up.
