2.0L Coolant on National Backorder

[LuvHydro]

Durex. For peace of mind.

Good one.
You will note I bought the LARGE size....

Put my premixed coolant in. Took about 20 oz and I think the thing is going to run like it's a 392!
Carry on.

Thanks to this forum, I checked the coolant on my 2019 2.0 Turbo and found the dipstick was dry.
A scan of the engine compartment and garage floor did not reveal evidence of any leaks anywhere...both clear reservoirs along the fender had fluid in them.
Why doesn't Jeep use clear plastic for the main reservoir???
I did discover there is a yellow plastic MAX FILL gauge INSIDE the reservoir opening, however you have to be a contortionist and use a mirror and bright flash light to see it as it is up against the hood/firewall area.
I could not find Mopar coolant anywhere in town here, so ordered some from Amazon, but it was about a week out and I thought I'd have to park the Jeep till then...
Old Dogger came to my rescue with a quart and a half he had leftover from a coolant change.
THANKS OLD DOGGER!
The main reservoir took almost a full quart!.
I removed, loctited and replaced the two coolant flange bolts, so avoided a potential overheating disaster by the skin of my teeth.

Just compensating for the pint it will lose throughout the week.

It's actually being consumed? I was going to chalk mine up to being under filled at the factory.

I received correct product ordering from here

Amazon. $17. 90032 printed on the back label.
https://www.amazon.com/Mopar-Year-M...pd_rd_i=B017DP43ZC&psc=1&ref_=pd_bap_m_rp_2_t

I got the correct item as well- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017DP43ZC?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

Picture in Amazon is different but item has MS 90032 on the back

Have you ever tasted antifreeze? It's sweet. It's delicious. It's very very toxic. It's been a toddler and pet poisoning problem for many years.

Embittered means it has an additive to make it taste appropriately disgusting for its level of toxicity, so Millennial influencers don't make an Antifreeze Cocktail Challenge on TicTok and make half of the generation drop dead.

Hmmm delicious ehhh?
