Reviews for Cold Case MOJ995 Aluminum Performance Radiator for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK

If you like replacing your radiator every couple of months go with this one. If not choose something else. I bought this thinking it would be a good upgrade to my jeep. It was, for 2 months and then it developed a leak on the driver's side of the radiator. Contacted Quadratec and was able to get a warranty replacement sent to me from the manufacturer after sending them several photos of the leak. Got the new one installed and here I am 8 months later with not one but two leaks in the replacement radiator. I see why they have a lifetime warranty on them because you will be replacing them very often. I don't want to go through the hassle of sending photos in again so I am now looking at a different brand or possibly going with an OEM one because they seem more reliable.

I’ve gone through two Cold Case radiators in less than a year. If you have a mall crawler and live in a warm climate, they might be a good choice. Living in Idaho and actually using a Jeep as an Offroad vehicle is bad for Cold Case radiators. The first one failed at 900 miles and the second at under 400 miles. The first failed catastrophically and the second developed a steady but small leak in a corner weld.

Before they started leaking, they were great; kept the temps right at or slightly below 203° most of the time and the temps came down almost immediately after hard climbs. Both were professionally installed and failed at welds. Even though I am not a fan of the OEM radiator, they are more reliable than the two Cold Case radiators I purchased.

Bottom leaked horribly after 4 months. Would not recommend. My OEM radiator lasted over 160,000 miles. This POS lasted 4000 miles. Trying to contact manufacturer for warranty.

DO NOT BUY!!! I have went through 4 radiators already . The last one didn’t even last 2 months. Before anyone says anything I put new coolant in the system every time. To make things worse when I called quadratec after the first one started leaking. They were out of stock, took them almost 6 months to get a replacement to me. This last time quadratec wouldn’t hardly even talk to me about getting my replacement said they would look into it and never call back. After a month or so someone at quadratec said I would have to contact the manufacturer and get a replacement. Total bs in my opinion if you are going to sell the product you should stand behind it or pull it off the shelf. And definitely don’t make the customer do the work oh and by the way the manufacturer charges you shipping so get ready to pay even more total waste of money and my time replacing the part and dealing with the headache!

Installed radiator myself first time. Developed major leak after 6 months. Manufacturer warrantied first unit provided replacement, had second unit installed at a jeep specialty shop. Developed leak after 8 months. Asked for refund, manufacturer would only replace with warranty unit. Going with another manufacturer.

Terrible value. This "all welded" radiator lasted less than a year before having multiple leaks. This wasn't abused, it was on a daily driver road jeep. WOULD NOT RECCOMEND.

Installed radiator 10 months later leaking ,
Return to stock radiator from Mopar.

This radiator isn’t very good. Works great for a year and then I got pin hole leaks. Quadratec was wonderful enough to replace it quickly and easily with another cold case radiator. It’s now been another full year and this radiator is doing the same thing. Quadratec was nice enough again to replace it with a mopar radiator this time. I will never get a cold case ever again. Unfortunate.

Not happy at all. Bought and installed to find it had a leak. Contacted cold case who would not believe it was leaking and wants me to take a video to prove it. The leak is in the lower inner corner behind fan shroud. Guy said he wants to see where it's leaking in real time. This means I have to take elec fan shroud off, then stick my arm down there to video while running. Completely unacceptable. Now it's developed second leak. Very unhappy

It's leaking around where the tubes enter into the side tanks on both sides. I am losing 1/2 a gallon of antifreeze in 5 days. My Jeep is strictly on road back and forth to work. Hopefully I can get it covered under warranty.
