MITZONE Upgrade Aluminium Thermostat Housing Assembly Compatible with 2011-2021 Jeep Dodge RAM Chrysler 3.6L 3.2L V6 Vehicles - 200 Town & Country Avenger Grand Caravan Cherokee

Direct OEM replacement for my 2015 Grand Cherokee Overland 3.6L. This is any easy replacement and only requires a small socket with a few sizes.Be mindful you'll need to recirculate and top off the coolant after replacing as some will spill out when you remove the existing thermostat/housing. I like that this feels like an upgrade from the factory plastic housing.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Because it was made out of steel , not plastic

2012 Jeep JK, Great upgrade from the OEM plastic one, I also went with the Ripp Technologies 185 degree thermostat

This aluminum thermostat housing is excellent fantastic. It fit like a grub everything lined up no problems. Over the years, I always try to if I have to replace a part and if it's the original is plastic, I always look to replace with aluminum or metal. In all of my vehicles. First of all these A.H At these auto companies who design plastic parts Especially on the Motor should be fired and put in jail Because they know the part will Break and make the consumer dish out big Money For repairs.

This worked great! Way better than stock plastic housing!

Update on earlier review, this leaks around bleed screw, ever so slight. Going to have to pull screw and put an O-Ring on it. I would buy again, just need a little tweak before install. I saw it when I installed it but figured it was manufactured that way for a reason, guess I should have gone with my gut feeling.

Solid piece, used for 2012 chrysler town and country. No issue at all, Highly Recommend

This review is for the: MITZONE Upgrade Aluminum Thermostat Housing AssemblyMy car did not overheat or fail to cool the engine. It actually was not getting hot enough. I had an engine alarm show up do I went to my usual repair shop, T&J Service, which is just maybe four miles from my home. I told Tim about the alarm, so he came right out with the analyzer, hooked it up and it showed that the engine did get up to full running temperature. We figured it was the thermostat sticking open and I'd have to get that replaced.I didn't care for the OEM replacement parts that were available for my Ram CV as they were plastic housings. One of the 'how-to' repair videos on YouTube showed a guy getting the old unit out and he broke the plastic housing trying to remove the heater hose. I was concerned that it might break on install as it's only plastic, so I ordered this aluminum model.It fit like a glove, and I had no problems installing the MITZONE Upgrade Aluminum Thermostat Housing Assembly. It actually took less time than it did to get all the parts off that I needed to in order to install the thermostat.The included photos show the following:1st shows temp gauge at cold start;2nd is temp gauge at thermostat opening and heat starts to flow into the cab area;3rd is where the old thermostat stayed open and didn't allow more water temp than that;4th is where the new MITZONE Upgrade Aluminum Thermostat Housing Assembly allows the water temp to run now;Before I was getting heat, but I could hold my hands directly in front of the vent on full heat no problem.Now I CAN NOT hold my hands there as it is way too hot for them.Heats my car up nicely now and no more low running temp alarms!I definitely recommend the MITZONE Upgrade Aluminum Thermostat Housing Assembly if your 3.6L Dodge needs a replacement over the plastic housing.
