A brake hose is the flexible section of the hydraulic brake system. It carries brake fluid between the rigid brake lines and the brake at the wheel, and it flexes as the suspension and steering move.
Signs that a brake hose may need replacing include a cracked, bulging or swollen outer cover, fluid seeping at a fitting, or a soft, spongy pedal. Other brake components can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing the hose. Bleed the brake system after installation as directed by the vehicle service information.
