Spectra Premium CU13248 radiator for the 2012-2016 Chevrolet Sonic 4-cylinder 1.4L cools engine coolant as it flows through an aluminum cross-flow core. Its structure and design are built to meet the same durability expectations as the OE radiator.
Coolant leaking at the core or tanks, or an engine that runs hotter than normal, can mean the radiator has failed. Before you replace it, rule out a loose hose, a worn radiator cap or a thermostat that sticks, since coolant loss and overheating have more than one source. The car takes a single radiator, so one listing covers it.
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2012-2016 and 2018-2020 Chevrolet Sonic 4-cylinder 1.4L.
