[{"type":"text","content":"COLMAR, Pa., Aug. 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dorman Products, Inc. (NASDAQ:DORM) is announcing today the release of 300 new auto parts, a third of which are aftermarket-exclusives. The new products join an expansive catalog of more than 118,000 aftermarket solutions that advance the company’s mission of giving repair professionals and owners greater freedom to fix a wide range of passenger and commercial vehicles. This month’s featured new products include four Dorman® OE FIX™ parts, adding to a growing line of almost 2,000 OE FIX repair solutions designed to help save time, save money, or increase reliability. Two new fuel pump driver modules (601-131 and 601-132) engineered to fit a combined 4.6+ million aging General Motors (GM) vehicles offer all three advantages. When the factory module fails on certain GM vehicles, the dealership’s replacement part may require expensive calibration and programming. These time-saving Dorman OE FIX replacements are pre-programmed for an easier and more predictable installation, feature a thermal- and vibration-tested backing plate for greater resistance to corrosion, and upgraded electronics for added reliability. Dorman is a premier aftermarket supplier of engine heater hose assemblies and reinforces that leadership position this month with two new products designed to offer increased service life. These newest OE FIX assemblies (626-769 and 626-688) boast rugged aluminum T-connectors in place of the leak-prone plastic connectors used in the original equipment designs on hundreds of thousands of Ford and Nissan models. Technicians, retailers, and do-it-yourselfers should consider Dorman as their single source for serrated wheel studs, critical hardware that’s constantly exposed to the elements. Expanded coverage this month includes five new wheel studs (610-622, 610-625, 610-644, 610-748, 610-783) designed to fit a combined 6.5+ million Ford, GM, Lincoln, and Ram vehicles. These first-to-aftermarket studs are precision-manufactured from carbon steel and tested to demanding automotive industry standards to ensure strength, longevity, and safety. They also meet SAE automotive industry standards for strength and hardness. Other highlights from this month’s new product announcement include: An extremely versatile antilock braking system wheel speed sensor connector (645-134) that can speed qu...
