The recommended coolant for the 2016 Chevrolet Sonic is DEX-COOL with a 50/50 mix of clean, potable water. The vehicle has a capacity of 6.5 liters for the 1.4-liter 4-cylinder engine and 6.0 liters for the 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine. The coolant circulates through the engine and radiator to regulate extreme temperatures and prevent overheating or freezing. It is expected to last either 5 years or 150,000 miles, whichever occurs first. To check the coolant level, park the vehicle on a flat surface and allow the engine to cool. Look at the reservoir level to determine if a change is necessary.
