Dodge Journey???
Please share with someone who owns one.
Just out of warranty your Dodge journey will hit a speed bump or some other shock or vibration and you will find Dodge Journey 2.4 VVT 2009-2018 HEATER HOSE Assembly 05058437AK
FRONT CORE TO TUBE, UPPER & LOWER HOSE Assembly will crack dumping all your coolant out in about 10 seconds and by the time you smell it or notice your temp gauge will be in the HOT range. THIS MOTOR CANT TAKE OVERHEATING! YOU WILL CRACK YOUR HEAD OR BLOW A HEAD GASKET IF NOT CAUGHT IN TIME! THE PLASTIC T IS MADE SO THIN IT CRUMBLES IN YOUR HAND. DODGE WANTS $130 FOR THIS HOSE. (RIPOFF) I WAS SO PI**ED THAT THIS CHEAP PART CAUSED MY DODGE JOURNEY WITH 200,000K MILES THAT RAN GREAT TO OVERHEAT AND DAMAGE THE #3 CYLINDER COMPRESSION RING I DECIDED TO MANUFACTURE MY OWN HOSE ASSEMBLY MADE FROM CRACK PROOF AND RUST PROOF SOLID BRASS AND HIGH TEMP SILICONE HOSE AND CHARGE HALF PRICE. FIX IT NOW B4 IT COSTS YOU A MOTOR. THIS IS ENGINEERED FAILURE.

Part Number: 05058437AK. Easy to replace, giving you peace of mind. This is an after market hose assembly. It is one assembly that goes from either the upper or lower front heater core to the plastic thermostat manifold on the engine, and to the aluminum tubes on the fire wall that goes to the back....
