Answer
Hi Janet:

Yup if your gettein antifreeze inside the car the heater core is leaking. This is a pretty big job. The part is not all that expensive but the labor is pretty intensive and that is where the bulk of the cost is. shop around and see what you can get for a good price. The labot is maybe 3 hours plus the price of the parts. Good luck :}
