I have had some luck with my two Durangos with 5 radiators splitting open between both of them. So let’s say I look over the radiator area often, I have been smelling some coolant for some time trying to find it in the usual places and I find this.
 
That's a pretty crazy history... where are you located? Is this somehow environmentally related? Are you in the desert or someplace very hot (or perhaps very cold)? Is somebody putting non-standard coolant, or anything else, in your vehicles or something? That's nuts!

I live in nyc so not so crazy hot , some what cold winters. I showed my buddy who’s a dodge tech and he’s never seen this, guess I’m lucky.

Maybe someone leaned on it.

I was thinking more of the 5 radiators and now a coolant overflow bottle, on just two vehicles. Something doesn't seem right. NYC can't be THAT hard on things, can it?
Radiators split at the seams so I don’t know what’s the issue with them, I’ve seen others with same issue. I’m just super unlucky I guess
 
I've had two radiators split open on my '02 Ram before I traded her in.. I figured it was a problem with the OEM pressure cap not opening properly (because I didn't replace it the first time). But I'm beginning to hope this ain't a "Dodge thing".
