This part cross-references Anchor 2438 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Overheating caused by a leaking or restricted radiator
• Coolant loss from cracked tanks or damaged core passages
• Reduced heat rejection from corrosion or internal blockage
• Temperature instability in daily-driven import vehicles
• Cooling system service needs on front-mounted radiator applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify radiator dimensions, hose connections, and transmission or oil cooler requirements before installation. Confirm the vehicle’s exact year, make, model, and position against the fitment list, especially for the 2006 Chrysler Sebring with oil cooler application. Flush the cooling system, inspect hoses and clamps, and refill with the correct coolant mixture after installation. For Chrysler Sebring, Dodge Stratus, and Mitsubishi Eclipse applications, compare the original radiator layout to ensure proper alignment and connection points.

Quality Assurance

Nissens develops and manufactures thermal management components to high quality standards and continuously updates its product range to match changing aftermarket requirements. The 68180 radiator reflects that focus on consistent cooling performance and application-specific fitment.
