We have a 1999 Newell #538. Newell replaced the original radiator Sept 2011 under warranty with one from Atlas. Sept 2013 it started leaking and inside core (shroud side) has white corrosion at bottom. Am not pleased that 24 months out radiator has failed since removing and installing is a big labor job; also not eager to buy another radiator from Atlas. Atlas has disowned this problem as 'out of warranty'. I offered that they would be in trouble if these radiators only lasted 2 years, but Atlas just ignored my request for assistance. We take great care maintaining our coach so coolant, coolant filter is not the issue. Appears that electrolysis has occurred due to radiator defect. Any thoughts, suggestions?
