While driving I noticed that the car temperature went higher than normal. I immediately pulled over the car and noticed that the car was leaking significant amount of coolant. Towed the car back home. Upon further inspection it was noticed that there was some coolant coming out from the glued metal parts that is also attached to the coolant hose. The part needed to be repaired in order to fix the problem.
