- Poor fitment from straight hose used in a molded application
- Coolant flow issues related to damaged hose bends

Installation Notes and Tips
Verify hose routing against the original part before installation and confirm both 18 mm ends seat properly on the mating connections. Check surrounding clamps, fittings, and adjacent hoses for wear while servicing the cooling system. This molded heater hose is listed for the heater outlet position on the Kia Soul, so match the routing and centerline length to the vehicle before final assembly.
