Most modern cars are built with organic acid technology (OAT) antifreeze (e.g., DEX-COOL [25]), or with a hybrid organic acid technology (HOAT) formulation (e.g., Zerex G-05), [26] both of which are claimed to have an extended service life of five years or 240,000 km (150,000 mi). DEX-COOL specifically has caused controversy.

After settlement of a class-action lawsuit, GM agreed to compensate owners of many vehicles ...
A coolant is a substance, typically liquid, that is used to reduce or regulate the temperature of a system. An ideal coolant has high thermal capacity, low viscosity, is low-cost, non-toxic, chemically inert and neither causes nor promotes corrosion of the cooling system. Some applications also require the coolant to be an electrical insulator.
