  Hose Radiator, km5331

• Description:

  This is the genuine Ford radiator hose, the molded upper coolant hose that carries hot coolant between the engine and the radiator as part of the cooling circuit. Cataloged by Ford as a radiator hose, it is shaped to route correctly and fitted with the proper connections for a leak-free seal. This part serves 15-24 Edge and Lincoln MKX and Nautilus applications with the 2.7L engine. Owners look for this hose when they find a coolant leak, notice the engine running hot, see coolant pooling, or when the hose has become swollen, cracked, hardened, or soft and spongy with age. Because the hose carries hot, pressurized coolant and endures constant heat cycling, its rubber degrades over time and can crack, split, or blow out, which is a common cause of coolant loss and overheating. A failed radiator hose can dump coolant quickly and lead to overheating damage. Installing the correct genuine molded hose restores a properly shaped, leak-free coolant path with the right routing and clamp points. As an original Ford component it matches the hose contour, diameter, and end fittings exactly so it seats on the connections without kinks or stress. Confirm the engine and hose position against your vehicle before ordering, and refill and bleed the cooling system properly after installation to avoid air pockets and ensure reliable engine cooling.

• Applications: 2.7L.
