Grand Caravan 6-cyl

  • 75,024 miles
2008 Dodge Grand Caravan V6 3.8L engine, 75K miles, vehicle has rear ac/heater blower option. The Y heater hose, dealer part 4677603ak, in the engine compartment start leaking coolant at the rubber hose connection & the Y pvc, coolant was dripping on the exhaust shield back of the engine close to the double wall. At that time I have been in slow traffic for at least 30 min when I noticed a burning smell coming from engine compartment. I shut off the engine, but coolant was still keep dripping for a while, had the hood open and tried to vent out engine compartment preventing a fire under the hood. Home I replaced the bad heater hose with a new one purchased from Napa auto parts, part no 16599.
