I'm slowly replacing the cheap plastic crap on my Encore. This went on like a champ and like metal better than the plastic that started leaking on me. Shocking, I know.

Used this but used felpro gasket since I had purchased timing cover set and was included. Fit was spot on. No leaks. Only thing I noticed was the air bleed check back was at 6 o'clock position then o'clock location. I was able to undo spring plate and move to that position, then installed it. Worked well with computer as no codes. If I have issue later I will update. Great price and not plastic. Hardest part is heater hose clamp and hose install but well worth time to do locked radiator hose in place perfectly.

Perfect port no more plastic I replaced it with a plastic one 3 months ago and it was leaking again this time I got this aluminum one fits perfect I think it’s the last time I haft to replace it

Perfect replacement part but most importantly upgrade to stock part prone to failure due to heat perfect fit no issues will last longer than oem for sure came with all necessary hardware great buy for the price

Fixed my problem. Perfect fit! Perfect size

Good replacement for the stock plastic one.So far working perfectly. I was a little concerned about the gasket so l bought the Felpro repair gasket to be sure.

Failed after 400 miles.Ii gets stuck in either the open position or closed position. Either the engine runs too cold because of constant flow, or sometimes no flow of coolant whatsoever so it runs hot, but shows it is cold. Very dangerous. If I didn’t know better I could have totaled my engine. Terrible temperature control. Sure the aluminum is a better material, but leave it to the functional design to fail with these crappy Chinese “upgrades”. I’m waiting for the OEM part to come to install a replacement and I will be returning this junk.

I had a 2015 chevy sonic ltz sedan. I wish I knew that having a metal housing was an option because I went through 3 plastic OEM housings through the life of my car before I finally saw this one and installed it. The original part is garbage it WILL crack on you as it did for me and pretty much any other sonic owner. There are a ton of threads on how terrible the plastic parts are and that you should immediately swap it out for an aluminum one like this one. Do yourself a favor and save yourself car troubles by just replacing your housing even if yours isn't cracked yet, with this one. It was easy to install, I don't know much about cars or working on them and even I was able to crash course through the installation process. Good part, did its job, didn't leak, and was able to get my car back up and running just in time to trade it in for the new one I have now. 10 out of 10 would buy this thermostat housing.
