I have a 1999 ford taurus se. I had steam coming from what seemed to be the radiator. I took it to the ford dealership, they charged me $1100.00 to fix it, one week later its doing the same thing. I took it back, but they say they cant find anything wrong. Meanwhile, im still driving with the smell of antifreeze in my car, and occasional spouts of steam coming from the hood. can somebody give me some answers.

Optional Information:
