OEM Kia Belts and Hoses For All Models

Preventing Cooling System Failures with Quality Kia Hoses

The Horne Kia parts team knows what it takes to keep your vehicle running great. Hoses transport coolant, fuel, vacuum pressure, and other fluids throughout your vehicle's systems. We carry genuine Kia hoses designed to withstand the specific temperatures and pressures your engine produces. These rubber and silicone components endure constant exposure to hot fluids, chemicals, and engine vibration that gradually weakens their structure.

What Different Hoses Do in Your Vehicle

Coolant hoses connect the engine to the radiator, heater core, and overflow reservoir, allowing fluid circulation for temperature regulation. Fuel hoses deliver gasoline from the tank to the engine under pressure. Vacuum hoses control various emissions and engine management functions. Brake hoses carry hydraulic fluid from the master cylinder to the calipers at each wheel. Your Telluride or Forte uses dozens of hoses throughout the engine bay and undercarriage. Each hose type uses materials formulated for its specific application, whether handling high heat, fuel resistance, or pressure containment.

How Hoses Deteriorate and When to Replace Them

Rubber hoses become brittle and develop surface cracks from heat cycling and ozone exposure over time. The inner layers can deteriorate from chemical exposure, causing soft spots or bulges. Clamp areas often leak first as hoses harden and lose their ability to seal properly. You might notice fluid leaks, overheating, rough running, or spongy brake pedal feel when hoses fail. Most coolant hoses need replacement every 80,000 to 100,000 miles, while other hoses may last longer or require earlier replacement. Genuine Kia hoses maintain proper fitment and material specifications that universal aftermarket hoses cannot match.
