Forge intercooler leak

Hello All,

Noticed that I have a leak between the tanks on my Forge inter-cooler.

Anyone else have an issue?

Any other aftermarket incoolers out there besides going back to stock?

Cheers!

Sold hundreds of the Forge and never seen such an issue. If it is a defect Forge will stand behind it and replace it for you. I'd just take some pics and send them to the dealer you bought it from to get the process going.

Replaced the intercooler, new intercooler has cast tanks vs 2014 welded tanks, looks like they missed a weld on the passenger tank front, where it should be welded to the core.

Cheers
