COLMAR, Pa., Sept. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dorman Products, Inc. (NASDAQ:DORM) is announcing the release of hundreds of new aftermarket automotive components and assemblies. These new offerings provide millions of repair opportunities for parts distributors, retailers and repair shops, as well as the freedom and ability to keep vehicles on the road for everyday drivers.

Dorman OE FIX repair solutions help save time, money and labor. This month, the following were added to this catalog of more than 2,000 parts:

• An upgraded loaded magnetic strut and ready-to-install strut assembly feature a top seal design that helps prevent common strut and state inspection failure for certain GMC, Chevrolet and Cadillac SUVs and trucks. Absorbing impact pressure better by more effectively and efficiently relieving and restoring cyclic fluid pressure on demand, these OE FIX repair solutions are engineered to eliminate leaks, and also offer more durable mounting points to help ensure long service life.
  

Additional noteworthy innovations for September include:

• Two aftermarket-exclusive products - a fuel pump driver module designed to restore the function of an original equipment module on specified Lexus and Toyota vehicles, and an active grille shutter for select Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV models. Both are cost-effective replacements engineered for plug-and-play installation.
• A turbocharger installation kit and turbocharger oil feed line, adding to Dorman’s diverse array of critical turbocharger accessories. The kit is designed to match the performance of the original hardware required to remount and repair the turbocharger on specified Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. The oil feed line is a reliable replacement for an original line in certain Ford Explorer SUVs that is leaking or has failed due to fatigue.
• Exclusively for select Ford Super Duty vehicles, an engine heater hose assembly which is a reliable direct replacement.
• A high-demand replacement radiator fan assembly with motor for certain popular Nissan SUVs, designed to match the fit and performance of the original equipment radiator fan.

These noted product releases represent just a few of Dorman’s customer-first innovations for September, adding to the company’s catalog of more than 122,000 SKUs.
