Engine coolant in an Alero is used in the radiator. A diagram and instructions for how to properly use the coolant can be found on the package instructions. An owner manual will also assist in proper use of coolant.
I had a similar problem with mine.... temperature gauge would shoot up after 10 minutes of driving and all the coolant would be gone... started watching the tail after replacing the coolant and saw white smoke... found out later it was a crack in the cylinder and it was burning coolant... this may not be your problem, but it mite help...
on my 328i I had that problem, and found that the tube that held the oil dipstick was sucking air at it's base where it meets the engine.

In a 2007 Chevrolet HHR, the coolant system primarily consists of the radiator, coolant reservoir, water pump, and hoses, which are located in the engine compartment. The radiator is situated at the front of the engine bay, while the coolant reservoir is typically found near the driver's side. The water pump, which circulates the coolant, is mounted on the engine. Coolant hoses connect these components, facilitating the flow of coolant throughout the engine and radiator.
Assuming there is coolant in the engine the most likely cause is a build up of sediment behind the coolant drain or in the coolant drain tap itself.

It is typically found on the driver's side of the engine, towards the rear, and is screwed into the block. This sensor monitors the engine's coolant temperature and sends the information to the engine control unit or gauge.

you may have a leak in a hose and it is running to the back of the engine from the hose in the front and it may be a bottom hose I have a 94 model Ford and I had the same problem. I found out that the freeze plugs had cracked and rusted out till they began to leak.
