What is a expansion tank on a car?
As the engine coolant heats up, the coolant expands, so the coolant needs a reservoir or expansion tank to flow in and out of as needed.
Why is your coolant leaking from the top of the tank if the tank is to the line and why is it not going down?
Perhaps the coolant was overfilled. It will expand because of heat or pressure and the excess makes it way to the coolant refill tank. Make sure your coolant doesn't have oil in it. In a worst case scenario you could have a faulty head gasket or engine damage that allows engine oil to seep into the coolant. But if you don't see oil in the coolant, then just drain some off.

There's a plastic overflow tank in the engine compartment that you use to check the coolant level (add and full marks on the tank), and to add additional antifreeze if its low. It typically has a big black lid on the top and is marked showing that its coolant. You can open this with the engine hot to add coolant....do not remove the radiator cap while the engine is hot. Do not mistake the coolant tank with the windshield washer fluid tank. Both are clearly marked.
