I own a 1999 Plymouth Neon. Recently, when I was filling the overflow tank, the anitfreeze was leaking out of the bottom onto the driveway. I checked the radiator itself and it is okay. The car is not smoking and I dont smell antifreeze in the car itself. Also, the check engine light just came on. Sometimes when I start the car it acts like it wants to stall but doesnt. Then when It gets started its okay. Could it be a broken hose or something worse and what is an average cost to fix it? I kinda broke and cant afford to pay too much.

You need to find the source of the leak and then take it from there.
Backtrack from where it's running onto the ground.
Not good to run or drive with low coolant level.
You would have to pull the trouble codes to help determine why the check engine light is on.
Some parts stores will do this for you.

Good luck. Let us know what happens.
