*** NOTE: 2013-UP MODEL YEARS ONLY ***
NEW MOPAR OAT COOLANT
Chrysler Corporation LLC. has released a new engine coolant for 2013 model year vehicles and beyond.
Mopar Antifreeze/Coolant 10-year/150,000 mile formula
p/n 68163848AA (concentrate) / p/n 68163849AA (50/50 mixture)
MSRP $53.35/gallon (concentrate) / MSRP $33.35/gallon (50/50 mixture)
The use of aluminum cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, and water pumps requires special corrosion protection. Mopar[emoji768] Antifreeze/Coolant, or the equivalent ethylene-glycol base coolant with organic corrosion inhibitors (called OAT, for Organic Additive Technology) is recommended. This coolant offers the best engine cooling without corrosion when mixed with 50% ethylene-glycol and 50% distilled water to obtain a freeze point of -37°C (-35°F). If it loses color or becomes contaminated, drain, flush, and replace with fresh properly mixed coolant solution.
Notes and cautions:
The recommended mixture is 50/50 ethylene-glycol and water. Never use pure antifreeze.
Do not change the thermostat for summer or winter operation. If replacement is ever necessary, install ONLY the correct type thermostat. Other designs may result in unsatisfactory cooling performance, poor gas mileage, and increased emissions.
OAT coolant is purple in color. It cannot be mixed with other types of coolant including Chrysler's existing HOAT coolant and only should only be mixed with approved OAT coolant of the same color. Maintenance of the cooling system is not required unless a repair has been made with loss of coolant or the coolant has been contaminated.
CAUTION: Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze) other than specified Organic Additive Technology (OAT) engine coolant (antifreeze), may result in engine damage and may decrease corrosion protection. Organic Additive Technology (OAT) engine coolant is different and should not be mixed with Hybrid Organic Additive Technology (HOAT) engine coolant (antifreeze). If a non-OAT engine coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into the cooling system in an emergency, it should be replaced with the specified engine coolant (antifreeze) as soon as possible.
CAUTION: Do not use coolant additives that are claimed to improve engine cooling.
