Dorman - OE Solutions HVAC Heater Hose Assembly P/N:626-626
Keep engine coolant moving to the cabin heater core with the Dorman heater hose assembly, part number 626-561, a direct-fit replacement for the 2009-2010 Dodge Journey. Original equipment assemblies often fail when their plastic Y-connector cracks. This Dorman OE FIX version uses an upgraded aluminum Y-connector, intended to prevent that same failure.
A heater hose carries engine coolant to and from the heater core, which uses that heat to warm the cabin. If a cracked connector or leaking hose on the original assembly is causing coolant loss or weak cabin heat, this Dorman heater hose replaces it. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details on your 2009-2010 Dodge Journey.
