    This is a classic case of not getting enough information to make a diagnosis in the beginning. At this point I'm going with bad thermostat. It's typical to have coolant boil out if the vehicle isn't moving if the thermostat is stuck shut or partially shut. Go the easy route first though and check the fans.

     

    Boil out! Thanks for the? words!

    In that case it's almost certainly the fans.  With the engine running put A/C on Max and both fans should be on.  If not replace the fan and controller as a unit with Motorcraft parts (not Dorman).

    Do you have the part number?

    So true.

     

    I don't bother making any attempt to use my diagnostics crystal ball if the poster can't make the effort to provide basic information such as "checked for fluid on my garage floor and driveway, but nothing", or "some white exhaust smoke when starting".

    You Are right. 

    I have choosen 3.5L section to post. This is why i didn't give this info. 

    The two times it happen, the vehicle was not moving. I just stopped(with engine on) to make a call. The third time, the vehicle was moving but slowly (arround 20mph)I was preparing to turn. 

    There's no any leakage. The coolant will only go out after the alarm is popped out. 

    Pls use you diagnostics crystal ball now and help. ??

    It's helpful if those posting a question/problem would offer some details.  In this case, which engine? 
    If you have the 3.5L you're probably in big expensive trouble after driving 'two' radiators worth of coolant into the oil pan.  If it's another engine you might be dribbling coolant as you go but you'd probably notice that (by smell alone) or you've sprung a leak in your heater core and your carpet is soaked with coolant (again, you'd smell it).

    So, which engine and, as already suggested, check your dipstick.

     

    It is 3.5L and there's no leak. The coolant is drained out after the warning alarm,  not before. When the engine is hot it push the coolant out.

    Check your oil for coolant.  If it looks like chocolate milk don't drive it.   If you're lucky it's not the water pump.

    Did it leak on the ground or did it just disappear?

    There's nous leackage. And I Havel changed the water pump 3 months ago. 

  7. Thanks dear.

    I found the path. Now the issue is that I have been asked to confirm my Sync version, which I currently don't know. I googled it but can't find. Do you have an idea of how to check it? 

    Note that I am outside US. Am in West Africa.

    Also the group of number is 3 in my interface instead of 4 from yours. Is the right parameter in my side?

    Pls see the attachment.

    Thanks!
