I have a 2002 chevrolet venture van with 54,000 miles. The radiator appears to be leaking coolant at the lower bottom corner on the passenger side. What would be the best way to fix this problem? Do I need a new radiator or can this one be repaired using a stop leak product or by some other method?

Thank you.

you can run some stop leak through it if it isn't leaking too bad. or you can find out exactly where it is leaking from and pinch it off with some needle nose plyers until it stops. if there is a whole in your radiator and you can afford to do it I would just replace it. used or new it dont matter.
