Review on Dorman 626-307HP HVAC Heater Hose Assembly: The 🔧 Ultimate OE FIX for Chrysler, Dodge, and Volkswagen Models by Lild Zimmerly

Nobody makes a strong enough quick connect in these assemblies? The answer seems to be "no". I thought I made a wise decision in choosing this product. As you can see from the photo, the middle part of the quick release buckle is broken. This build was on the car for anywhere from two weeks to a year. It didn't take a year! The owner left the car on the side of the road to be picked up by a tow truck. Between being left behind and being taken away, a rogue attempted to steal the catalyst. Now the exhaust pipe is broken. Great, there are still a few things to fix to get it back on the road. It's great that the Y-tubes are metal, but the quick release is junk. Do yourself a favor and don't use it, or buy this build. Instead, use a longer heater hose to replace it. You will thank me!
