Market analysis
Why does the Ford Escape radiator cost more?
A used Ford Escape radiator carries a median asking price of $175, which is 17% higher than the Dodge Durango at $150. Supply also plays a role: Ford Escape has 2,373 priced listings versus 1,362 for Dodge Durango, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
The Dodge Durango radiator is interchangeable across 16 model years versus just 12 for the Ford Escape — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
At Grade B (good) condition, the Dodge Durango is 21% cheaper ($150 vs $190) — the gap narrows compared to the overall median difference.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used radiator
- Inspect for bent or crushed fins — minor cosmetic bending is OK, but large crushed sections reduce cooling capacity.
- Check both tanks (top and bottom) for cracks, especially along the crimped seams on plastic-tank radiators.
- Confirm the inlet/outlet positions and sizes match — some models moved ports between model years.
- Look for internal blockage: shake the unit and listen for debris, or flush it with a garden hose before installing.
