Dodge parts from breakers: Journey, Caliber, Durango
Dodge is mostly from the USA
Most Dodges here are American: Journey, Caliber, Durango, Nitro, Charger and Grand Caravan. Their parts differ from European equivalents in lamps, dimensions and wiring. The Journey was also sold in Europe, where it had diesels, while the American version had 2.4 and 3.6 V6 petrol engines. So always give the engine in your request.
Trim level: where the hidden traps are
On a Dodge the trim decides a lot. Different versions have different front and rear bumpers, headlights (with or without fog lamps), and door mirrors with heating and indicators. On the Caliber, the transmission and mountings differ between the CVT and the manual. Write the trim or send the VIN, and the seller will match more exactly.
What to put in your request
- Car model — for example Dodge Journey;
- Which part — for example the front bumper;
- Year — for example 2012;
- Engine — for example 2.4 petrol;
- Side — front left and so on;
- Colour — red or another;
- Condition of the part — no dents or cracks;
- VIN, for example 3C4PDCAB2CT123456;
- Delivery city and budget.
Example: “I need a front bumper for a 2012 Dodge Journey, 2.4 petrol, red, with no cracks, intact mountings and the grille. VIN 3C4PDCAB2CT123456. Courier delivery to Central, budget up to HK$1,500.”
New part or used
New original Dodge parts can be expensive and slow to arrive, so many people buy from a breaker. A good compromise is a breaker part in the right colour that can be fitted straight away. For body parts this is usually cheaper than painting a new plastic one. For units, ask about mileage, warranty and the chance to test.
When comparing prices, add the delivery cost: a bumper and a bonnet are large, and shipping can be a noticeable sum.
For the Charger and Durango, ask especially about the engine and the drive: there are V6, V8 and all-wheel-drive versions, and the radiators, propeller shafts and subframes depend on them. For the Nitro and Grand Caravan, check the year, because a facelift changes the grilles, tail lamps and part of the interior.
