That is very highly unlikely VERY VERY VERY UNLIKELY.

if by some means it came out of there the vehicle wouldnt be running to get hot

I was told by a friend of mine that the leak was coming from the cap. That didn't seem right. I know that I seen it coming under the car, not sure where.

What do you think it can be.

1. a hose.
2. the radiator.
3. a thermostat problem.
