My radiator went bad at 104K, a 1999 T&C.

What happended when it went bad? Did it start leaking, or not cooling?

When radiators were made of brass, they could be repaired in most
cases. Now, most of made of aluminum with plastic tanks. The radiator
in my 1990 Dodge Spirit developed a leak, and the shop said they
couldn't fix it. A new one was $100.
