TYC Radiator 2438 is a practical OE-style replacement for vehicles that need restored coolant flow and integrated automatic transmission fluid cooling. It is a fitment-based solution for Chrysler Sebring, Dodge Stratus, and Mitsubishi Eclipse cooling system service where the original radiator configuration matches the listed dimensions and connections.

What This Radiator Helps Address

• Engine overheating caused by a failing or restricted radiator
• Coolant leaks from a damaged aluminum core or header area
• Transmission temperature issues related to an in-radiator oil cooler
• Reduced cooling efficiency from clogged tubes or fins
• Fitment problems when replacing the original Chrysler Sebring, Dodge Stratus, or Mitsubishi Eclipse radiator

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify core dimensions, inlet and outlet diameters, and transmission cooler port style before installation. Confirm that the vehicle uses a downflow radiator with a concentric transmission oil cooler and hose clamp connections. Flush the cooling system and inspect hoses, clamps, and transmission cooler lines before installing TYC 2438. For Mitsubishi Eclipse applications, confirm the build date note of 02/2001 where applicable.
