    I got my 2016 Cali T in December 2015 and have put only 700 miles on it and was shocked to find a puddle of pink/reddish colored fluid near the front right tire. Called my dealer who picked up the car right away and said it was the coolant that leaked. Interestingly, they never found a leak in the line and believe that the lines were never "bled" at the factory and as a result think it had air in the line that pushed the coolant out from the cap.

    It's strange for it to happen after driving it 700 miles and no overheating or even increase in temperature.

    Has anybody else had a similar incident?

    Was the car overheating? No.

    If there was a puncture in the system, usually the temp is affected.

    I had a small puncture in my radiator . The fluid level was a little low but the temp was high
