I have a leak. Not much of one. It's dropped about 3 drops on the garage floor in the past 2 weeks.

But it's still something I need to see about.

*grumble* it hasn't even been a month since I bought it. That's the joy of going pre-owned.

 

call the stealership and see what they say...

 

Well, ratfarts. No mention of the radiator in here: http://www.dodge.com/crossbrand/warr..._allbrands.pdf

 

i just went throught the same thing last week and no it's not ... but i can highly recommend a place to order it from if you would like ...

 

Please pass along where you ordered it. I've checked websites for Auto Zone and Advance and they don't indicate if I need a different one for HD cooling from just a standard build.

I am going to e-mail the dealer I bought it from to see if they'll help me out. I haven't even had it a month yet. Problem is that dealership is 3 hours away.

 

OK, so I've e-mailed the original dealer where I bought it to see if they're going to give me any support after spending $16,900 with them.

Auto Zone claims to have one in stock for $277. None of the online parts catalogs I've checked have indicated there are different part numbers for with or without HD cooling.

I also called a radiator shop to ask about repair and the said the aluminum core rads with the plastic tanks crimped onare rarely repairable.

 

Have you identified where the drips are coming from? You mentioned 3 drips on the floor, that could be coming from many places.

 

I looked up and saw coolant at the seam between tank & core on the lower, driver's side of the radiator.

It could be dripping from the upper hose but didn't appear to be. I'll have to inspect more closely.

I was too tired and disgusted about it last night to spend much time looking at it.

 

Here's some pics of the leak.

Closer look. I wiped it all clean to get a handle on my rate of leakage.
