Model year matters too: 2022 units carry the lowest median at $210, while 2017 tops the table at $299. Year-level pages linked in the table above break each one down by grade and variant.

Buying a used radiator: what to check
- Inspect for bent fins, crusted seams, and dried coolant trails, all signs of leaks.
- Confirm automatic vs manual transmission versions; auto radiators include cooler lines.
- Plastic end tanks age badly. Favor low-mileage donors.
- Pressure-tested units are worth the premium; ask.
