GZGN Thermostat Housing Assembly with Sensor for Dodge Jeep 2.4L/2.0L — Direct-Fit, 203°F Thermostat

The GZGN Thermostat Housing Assembly with integrated temperature sensor replaces the factory housing to regulate coolant flow and help the engine reach and maintain its optimal operating temperature.

This complete housing kit is engineered as a direct-fit replacement for a range of Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep 4-cylinder applications — covering common models such as the Dodge Journey, Avenger, Caliber, Chrysler Sebring and the Jeep Compass and Patriot. Molded from durable plastic and supplied with the sensor interface, the assembly matches original-equipment mounting points and outlet ports for a straightforward swap. It’s intended to restore correct thermostat operation after wear, leaks or sensor failure.

What are the key specifications and materials?

The housing is made from a durable grade of automotive plastic and includes a built-in sensor mounting port and multiple coolant outlets. The thermostat opens at approximately 203°F and the assembly uses three mounting holes for secure installation.

• Thermostat opening temperature: 203 °F (about 95 °C)
• Outlet ports: 5 coolant connections to match factory plumbing
• Mounting holes: 3, flange dimensions: approx. 1.25 in × 1 in
• Material/grade: regular automotive-grade plastic engineered for thermal cycling

How does the sensor-equipped housing affect engine performance?

Replacing a leaking or faulty housing with the integrated sensor version restores accurate coolant temperature feedback to the engine computer. Proper sensor input helps the engine manage fuel trim and fan control, and the thermostat’s rated opening temperature helps the engine warm up to its designed running temperature efficiently.

• Restores correct temperature readings to the ECU for consistent engine management
• Prevents coolant leaks at the housing-fitment area
• Replaces worn or cracked housings that can cause overheating or slow warm-up
• Matches factory mounting and outlet locations for simpler installation

What comes with the kit and what warranty is offered?

The product ships as a full thermostat housing assembly with the sensor port and the thermostat specification matched to the listed opening temperature. GZGN backs the part with a one-year warranty and customer support to address fitment or product concerns.

• Includes the thermostat housing assembly with sensor interface and required outlets

Who is this for: The GZGN Thermostat Housing Assembly w/ Sensor is for do-it-yourself mechanics, independent shops and fleet maintainers who need a direct-fit replacement for faulty coolant housings on mid-2000s to 2010s Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep 4-cylinder vehicles. It’s appropriate when the original housing is cracked, leaking, or the temperature sensor has failed, and when you want an OE-referenced part without remanufacturing delays. Always confirm fitment by matching vehicle year, engine displacement and OE numbers before installation.
