### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product

Fits perfectly and most important the safety release. Good product

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product!
*by B***E on March 29, 2026*

Great product and works great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Allowed a good seal on an aftermarker big box store radiator
*by T***2 on March 3, 2024*

I had to replace my stepson's 2000 Cherokee radiator. Got a radiator locally from a national parts store. Fit fine but the old cap would not seal it properly. Got some leakage around the cap. Likely a small dimensional difference from stock to aftermarket radiator filler neck. Tried another new cap with the same small leakage. Really needs a thicker rubber gasket. This pressure release version has the needed thicker gasket as part of the design for pressure release. Worked perfectly with the aftermarket radiator. Will work on any radiator but it solved a problem on my replacement radiator.
