COLMAR, PA — Dorman Products, Inc. (NASDAQ: DORM) has unveiled a significant expansion to its aftermarket automotive components catalog this week, introducing hundreds of new items. The latest additions fortify Dorman’s already extensive inventory, which boasts over 122,000 SKUs, and presents new sales opportunities for automotive and heavy-duty parts distributors, retailers, and repair shops.
Among the notable releases are two new entries in Dorman’s OE FIX™ line—a collection of repair solutions designed to deliver superior performance and convenience compared to standard dealership offerings. This flagship line now includes more than 2,000 products.
One standout product is an upgraded electronic throttle body tailored for select Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram vehicles. The part features a non-contact Hall effect sensor for enhanced durability and Dorman’s proprietary Sensor Shield™ shaft seal, designed to prevent debris and oil intrusion. This innovation aims to address common issues such as rough idling and malfunction indicator lamp illumination.
Another highlight is an engine intake manifold for specific Audi and Volkswagen models. Equipped with gaskets for both upstream and downstream ends, the manifold uses the factory sensor and features a robust cast aluminum actuator arm, promising longer service life than the original plastic component. This cost-effective upgrade aims to resolve rough running and error codes.
The July 2024 product release also introduces several first-to-aftermarket solutions:
- A power module relay repair kit designed to restore functionality in a wide range of Chrysler vehicles.
- Replacement valve cover kits for select Jeep, Ram, and Nissan models, matching the performance of original equipment.
- A roof-mounted GPS antenna for certain GMC, Chevrolet, and Cadillac SUVs, providing a durable replacement for damaged or malfunctioning units.
- A keyless entry keypad with trim for 2011-2019 Ford Explorers, made from high-quality materials to ensure reliability and longevity.
- Critical turbocharger accessories, including two coolant feed lines and an engine fuel cooler for select Ford trucks, SUVs, and Lincoln Navigators.
These innovative solutions reflect Dorman’s commitment to providing high-quality, cost-effective alternatives to OEM parts. The company aims to support technicians and DIY enthusiasts with reliable components that enhance vehicle performance and simplify repairs.
As Dorman continues to expand its product offerings, it remains a trusted source for automotive parts across a wide range of passenger and commercial vehicles. The latest releases underscore Dorman’s dedication to meeting the evolving needs of the automotive aftermarket industry.
