This is a direct-fit X AUTOHAUX HVAC heater supply hose engineered to replace OE numbers 55038163AI/55038163AE and restore coolant flow between the engine and heater core for Chrysler 300 (2011–2020), Dodge Challenger (2011–2021) and Dodge Charger (2011–2021).

When your vehicle’s cabin heating performance or coolant routing is compromised by a cracked, swollen, or leaking heater hose, swapping in a precision-built replacement restores reliable coolant circulation to the heater core. The X AUTOHAUX HVAC Heater Hose is manufactured to match original equipment dimensions and connection points so installation is straightforward and it integrates seamlessly with the existing HVAC plumbing.

How does this hose match the original equipment?

The X AUTOHAUX heater hose is produced to the same dimensional specifications as the factory part, including bends, hose lengths, and port diameters. That ensures tight sealing at the firewall and at engine connections and reduces the need for additional fittings or modifications.

• Manufactured to original dimensions for direct-fit replacement.
• Compatible with OE numbers: 55038163AI, 55038163AD, 55038163AE, 55038163AF, 55038163AG, 55038163AH.
• Designed to mate with factory clamps and connectors for secure installation.

Will installation require special tools or professional service?

Most mechanically inclined owners can fit this hose with common hand tools; it’s designed for a bolt-on swap without modifying components. However, working in the heater hose area can be tight and may require lifting the vehicle or removing trim panels on some models.

• Typical tools: pliers for clamps, screwdrivers, and socket set for accessible fasteners.
• Recommend confirming OE number and watching replacement video before starting.
• Seek professional help if access requires dashboard or core removal.

What performance and durability can I expect from the replacement hose?

The hose uses automotive-grade rubber compounds formulated to resist heat, coolant chemicals, and the vibration typical in V6/V8 powertrains, providing long-term service when installed correctly. Though not a lifetime component, it meets the resilience expectations for routine heating and cooling system operation.

• Engineered to withstand engine-bay temperatures and coolant exposure.
• Resistant to swelling, splitting, and premature degradation under normal use.
• Quality checks ensure consistent fit and function prior to packaging.

How do I confirm fitment for my vehicle before buying?

Verify compatibility by matching your vehicle model year and the existing hose OE number printed on the old part. The listing covers Chrysler 300 (2011–2020), Dodge Challenger (2011–2021), and Dodge Charger (2011–2021), but always confirm the OE reference to avoid returns.

• Check part numbers: 55038163AI/55038163AE and related variants listed above.
• Confirm vehicle year, make, and model against the fitment range.
• Inspect the old hose shape and connector orientation to ensure a match.

Who is this for: This X AUTOHAUX heater supply hose is ideal for owners and independent mechanics who need a direct-fit replacement for a failing heater hose on compatible Chrysler 300, Dodge Challenger, and Dodge Charger models. Choose this part if you want an OE-dimension replacement that simplifies installation and restores reliable coolant flow to the heater core; if you’re uncertain about access or removal procedures, a professional installer or service manual will help ensure correct fitting and safe coolant system handling.
