Had no heat for a few days replaced thermostat and hoses to front heater core and flushed coolant system. Today I foubd that the aluminum hoses under passenger side sliding door had ruptured in several places. Its a group of aluminum hoses that are pre molded and run into the rear aux heater core what is the hose assembly called and what could cause the rupture?
