Chevrolet Traverse Heater Core

Heater Core is the component in Chevrolet Traverse automotive that has the function of warming the interior of a car with the help of overheating an engine. Looking somewhat like a miniature radiator, the core is cooled by a water and antifreeze solution and the hot coolant from the engine is circulated through it to heat the vehicle's interior. In some cases, doors or valves that allow temperature control may be installed in the different types of heater cores; while more sophisticated have electromechanical actuators providing accurate control on the same. In conditioned vehicles, the heater core also helps in dehumidification in addition to reheating of cooled air. Some of the common problems include blockage, dripping, and rusting and may involve dismantling of the dashboard to an extent.

Each OEM Chevrolet Traverse Heater Core we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
