This patient: 2013 Dodge Challenger came in for a coolant leak. The thermostat housing was cracked and very brittle causing it to leak coolant everywhere.
This 3.6 Dodge engine can be found in other dodge vehicles as well as Chrysler and Jeep vehicles that have the 3.6 engine in it. The leaky thermostat housing is a common issue on these engines. It is an easy fix though.
The job takes about 15 minutes to do, and the part fairly cheap. The hardest part is bleeding the air out of the system. You have to be sure to do this properly, failure to do so will cause the vehicle to overheat.
Skill level needed: Beginner I’d rate it a 1 out of 10 with 10 being the hardest.

Great video. I have a 2015 Chrysler 300s. Will it be basically the same for that vehicle?
Thank you for your knowledge and support
Hi would this work on a 2019 dodge charger? Also my check engine light is on because of the P0128 code. Is it safe to drive? Until I can get it fixed. (About 3 days)
What if the check engine light is still on? Even though this was replaced and what the mechanic said to replace
My car is not hissing I’m concerned
