coolant leaking 2003 sorento

I have coolant leaking from a hose that leads out of the collant reservoir. What is the name of this hose and is it something I can change myself?

Is it the hose that runs from the coolant tank to the radiator or is there an overflow hose? If it's the hose from tank to radiator that is easily replaced. If it's an overflow hose there's nothing to fix, although you may have a faulty radiator cap. Is it running alright and not overheating, anything like that?

Stall while backing up

Hi, I have a 2003 Dodge Dakota that while backing up into the driveway, it will stall out. Once I start it up again, I can back it up and it will sort of hesitate a little, but eventually go up the driveway. The driveway is a small incline, less than 45 degrees, about 20 feet long. I also park in a parking garage with a level parking space and have no problems backing up into those spaces. Could it be the heat after driving it home? Currently, there is about 1/2 tank of gas, so it is getting plenty of gas to climb up the small incline. Thanks,Read More
