What does this accumulator with hose assembly do?
It stores refrigerant on the suction side while its desiccant removes moisture and traps contaminants from the A/C system that flushing cannot clear.
What vehicle does MPN 55557 fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your specific vehicle.
Are seals and o-rings included?
Yes. The unit comes with the necessary gaskets, o-rings, and seal for installation.
Why should the accumulator be replaced when servicing the A/C?
A leaking or open system can saturate the desiccant bag within a few hours. Replacement is required anytime the system is serviced and helps validate the compressor warranty.
Can I just flush the system instead of replacing this part?
No. The contaminants and moisture the accumulator/filter drier removes cannot be cleared by flushing, so replacing the unit is essential.
