Has anyone had this hose collapse on them like this:
Well the other day when I had my hood open with the car running I noticed this:

Sorry about the ****ty quality... but anyway. Ya... I noticed this hose was collapsed and it was discolored. I turned the car off and the hose inflated back to normal. So... I went to the dealer today and they just replaced it and it doesn't happen anymore. Can anyone explain to me what happened and has this happened to anyone else? New hose:

the tech was pretty confused when I showed him...
They just replaced it... and when they started it up again with the new hose and it didn't collapse... they considered it fixed. Seems fine to me.
