The antifreeze level in the overflow tank can drop due to several reasons, including coolant leaks in the system, evaporation over time, or a malfunctioning radiator cap that allows coolant to escape. Additionally, if the engine is overheating, it can cause the coolant to expand and push some out of the overflow. Regularly checking and maintaining the coolant level is essential to prevent engine overheating and damage.
