When changing the radiator on this vehicle, does the front assembly of the car (the frame and lights) need to be removed in order to get to the radiator or is it easy access? I watched a video on an Intrepid, the placements were different for the radiator, but the body of the car is similar, j/w, thank you.

THe headlight do not come out. You will need to remove the grill and the retaining bolts at the top of the rad support. Then, if you need to access something low from the outside, you can remove the fog lights. To answer you, no the entire front doesn't need removed.
