I think you're right, but then the only way they find the leak is by 
filling it.  I'm going through this right now with my 
suburban.  Charge lasted less than a year.  They charged it, added 
dye and said to come back in a week.  I snooped around with my UV 
light and I can't find anything.  We'll see if they do.  As for the 
JB Weld, I guess you could give it a try, but I'm not 
optimistic.  There's a lot of pressure on the high side.
