not coolant leaks. they are more known for oil leaks.
Check the radiator. A puncture in the radiator could leak back on to that part.

Hello guys.
This is real. After an oil and oil filter change the technician moved this hose he did not see it. I continued driving for at least 500km like everything was normal and sometime in parking lot, I've noticed a little bit of coolant on the floor. I checked the coolant level (reservoir) and everything looks like good. After 3 days I've checked with a flashlight and the hose was making contact with a pulley.
I lost a little bit of coolant (fortunately). I took the truck to mechanic and he told me... "your engine almost die".
I spend 300usd: new coolant, hours of mechanic and the hose spare.
Other technician told me that there is a factory issue, he doesn't think it was because of the oil change. There is a screw or bolt that loosens with vibrations and daily handling
Also there is a recall for some countries, not in my country

looking in the book it looks like there is a screw/bolt holding the bottom hose.
