Product Details

Universal Air RD11168KTC is built for Ford Fusion A/C service applications that require a header and desiccant bag kit rather than a complete receiver drier assembly. In HVAC systems, the receiver drier section helps manage moisture control within the refrigerant circuit, which is important when servicing the air conditioning system on 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016 Ford Fusion models. If you are searching for a Ford Fusion receiver drier kit, Ford Fusion desiccant bag replacement, or RD11168KTC A/C service part, this listing matches the confirmed vehicle fitment.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

  • Replacing a worn or contaminated desiccant element during A/C service
  • Restoring moisture control in the refrigerant circuit
  • Addressing receiver drier service needs on a Ford Fusion HVAC system
  • Supporting repair after compressor or system component replacement
  • Correcting A/C performance issues tied to moisture saturation

Installation Notes

Install RD11168KTC only on the confirmed 2013-2016 Ford Fusion application listed here. Follow the vehicle service procedure for refrigerant recovery, system opening, and component replacement, and verify all sealing surfaces and connections before recharging the system. Because this is a header and desiccant bag kit, confirm that the existing housing and related A/C components are serviceable before installation.

Quality Assurance

Universal Air RD11168KTC is cataloged as an HVAC service part for the specified Ford Fusion fitment. Confirm part number RD11168KTC against the vehicle year and model before ordering to ensure the correct receiver drier / desiccant element kit for the application.
