Can you see where it's leaking from? Are you sure the leak is not coming from a water pump or thermostat housing? Did you follow the trail of fluid from it's start? Have you checked the drain plug to make sure it's closed?

From new the radiator had an additive installed to prevent leakage and prevent corrosion. Some panicked and thought there was gunk build up in the radiator and had it completely flushed. Some relied on these quick change oil place's advice there was something wrong when in fact it was ignorance on those places part.

Maybe an object was thrown into the radiator somewhere. If it's leaking it will leave a trail of evidence.

I could be wrong but I believe these radiators have a plastic liner inside the radiator.
