Leaking Coolant?

Anyone else notice issues with their coolant levels being low? I popped the hood the other day to find my coolant levels 2 inches below the minimum threshold line. Brought it in today to the dealer and was told that a part was leaking, cant remember what it was for the life of me and that it needs to stay in the shop for warranty work. I will be in the dealership tomorrow to get the details on what the issue is but wondering if anyone has had any issues around this with their Pacifica's. Mine has only 4,000km on it!

I put pictures with additional clamps

Is this where yours was actually leaking?
Exactly, where it connects to the aluminum tube. I added extra zip ties and it's almost gone now.
From the bottom of the engine, there were leaks of coolant on the electric cubes. Unfortunately, I didn't take a picture then.

I had the radiator replaced on my 2017 Pacifica Touring L at 21,000 miles after a very small coolant leak was found. The coolant level would take months to get to a lower level in the tank. Now a year and a half later it is happening again. Bought more 50/50 mopar coolant at a dealer and asked him if the radiator was a common part to replace. The parts person looked it up on his computer and said about 60 a month were sold by Chrysler. Guess it time time to take it in and use my Mopar Lifetime warranty as the mileage is now at 43,000 miles.
Well on a positive note 60 a month are being sold by Chrysler and there are millions of Pacificas on the road that's still an extremely low percentage affected that you wouldn't have to worry about

Yes I will definitely keep an eye on that area I can see where you put the radiator clamps on glad it helped... Did you visibly see coolant leaks coming from those areas or you just did that as a precaution and it worked?
Yes, you could see the pink liquid on the joint was wet. I did it so quickly, but it would be best to drain the fluid and put on some decent twist bands.
I think the diameter of the hose is too large or the clamp is not tight enough. (the hose turns very easily)
It's still leaking a bit, but I've noticed less fluid loss.
My pacifica had a front collision. They were replaced with new coolers. I don't think it had anything to do with this leak.

I would say that someone has been in there. There is a factory spring clamp on the right, then an old rusty worm clamp on the left that was not there from the factory.
This old clamp is my work :) I had one at hand and secondly I didn't want to let the fluid out.
