Hi Scotty, I have a 2012 Toyota Camry with a little over 200,00 miles on it that has been giving me a lot of trouble over the last few months. My serpentine belt had snapped, causing my water pump to fail and then my car started to overheat. I got a new belt, new water pump and then had my radiator replaced as well because it had cracked. Long story short since then I’ve had to bring my car back to my mechanic 3 types because every 2-3 weeks my water pump stops working properly and coolant will leak out all over the place under the hood and out of the car. The newest water pump came directly from Toyota but sadly I still had the same problem 2 weeks after it being replaced. Do you know what the issue might be? I had the thermostat replaced as well

where does it leak from?
water pump stops working
Can you be more specific?
So the coolant will splash around and get on the inside of the hood, all over the engine and basically everything under the hood and then right under the water pump and the timing belt is where it looks like the leak is coming from. Every time this has happened before it’s been the water pump leaking so I’m assuming it’s that I just don’t know why it would keep happening
Who did the work, Bozo the Clown? Have the engine checked for a blown head gasket. Toyotas are famous for them.
@daywalker Why the down vote. It's a joke. C'mon man.
