Have you taken the plastic cover off the Expansion tank. This exposes the Purge valve. There is a drain hole between the purge valve and Fill. This hole connects to the overflow tube that drains down just in front of right rear tire.
Look for signs of dried or leaking coolant. The purge values can go bad as well. Though these typically lead more to condensation on the trunk lid, not a gallon + loss.
Take out carpet and foam pads, expansion tank cover plate refill you system with distilled water and get car up to temp to see what's going on

You mentioned the purge valves can go bad. Saying the valves typically lead more to condensation on the trunk lid. That's what I experienced today. Condensation on my deck lid. When you say "can go bad", are you referring to maybe the seals are bad in the valve?
