    Hello
    I have a 2012 Prius. Yesterday I started noticing water under the vehicle. I need help.
    I'm attaching a video for clarification.

    Please help.

    Thank you. MVIMG_20260426_173818.jpg

    Could be the air conditioning system's water condensation drain. That's normal.

    AC condensate is front passenger's side and is water.

    There is a potential for engine coolant in the same area but is normally pink and a little slimy.

    If it is coolant, the reservoir on the passenger side viewed from the top may go down. If that is the case, immediate attention is needed.

    Since the reservoir is somewhat opaque, a strong flashlight is best for observing coolant level.
