Default Coolant fast running low

I have a 2002 Mazda Tribute. I have notice that the coolant container is running low very quickly in a week. I just pour 1 Litre of Coolant into the container last thursday and it is now very low.

There is no leakage around the radiator. However, I have noticed after i parked the car, that is a some drops of coolant underneath the car.

what could be the problem ? is it the hose to the radiation ?

please help me ?

Get the coolant system pressure tested. These vehicle have common leaks,

1: Reservoir tank gets old & brittle & cracks.
2: Thermostat housing leaks.
3: Hose clamps get weak & leak.
