You have a leaking heater core. You might smell antifreeze if you turn on the defroster.
Because there's a hole somewhere under the hood that's letting it out, and it's usually in a heater hose. If you can't find it any other way, there's a blacklight detection dye you can put in the antifreeze. You put it in the radiator, then shine a blacklight (the ones they have at hardware stores are fine for this) on your engine. The leaking antifreeze will glow under blacklight.
It stops your car from freezing and not starting up in cold weather
Well that one is touchy. Many people say that it will destroy your car but from experience and observation I can tell you that depending on the car it can run without it but it's bad for your engine and eventually it will destroy your engine. If you run without antifreeze your car will over heat. Antifreeze is an engine coolant aka it works with your car to make sure that you engine doesn't overheat. It's not wise to go without it but not impossible. My suggestion for you is to make sure you get antifreeze in your car. If you wish to gamble the maintenance of your vehicle more power to you but expect it not to last a very long time. If a car is properly taken care of it can easily last most of your life. As for the car garage if they take it out they need to put it back in. Their job is to keep your car in good shape maintenance wise. I'd go back and raise all hell. you out. ~Angelic Beauty~ ////////basically you must not run your engine without coolant it will simply overheat very quickly and seize up pdq
the antifreeze runs through all your water lines in your car . . . . you put it in your water tank or radiator
antifreeze antifreeze a fifty fifty micture of water and antifrez is best
In the coolant reservoir when the engine is cool.
Nothing Nothing

Not if you want to keep driving the car!
YES
some people have said you should and others have said you dont have to. I myself have never put antifreeze in the during installation in all the years i have worked on cars
50 / 50 mixture of antifreeze and preferably distilled water usually ( Ford says not to have less than 40 % antifreeze and not more than 60 % antifreeze )
no but if in the winter you do not put in the car the engine will freeze you can also use water during the summer No!
You can run up to 75 percent antifreeze without any trouble. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actually , Ford states not to exceed ( 60 % antifreeze )
Antifreeze has to be put in at the overflow bottle.
