If the vehicle is loosing coolant without any external leaks then you may have a blown head gasket. I’d suggest having the system pressure tested to see if an external or internal leak is found or if there is another problem like a clogged radiator.
If you decide to get this fixed, consider YourMechanic, as a certified technician can diagnose your overheating issue firsthand and suggest an accurate repair from there. Good luck.
