I had to replace this hose for the same reason on my car. I didn't discover that it was leaking until a month after my warranty expired. What really irritated me was that I had my Inspection I dones three months before that and if the tech's did their job right they would have identified this problem and replaced the hose under warranty. Nevertheless, I couldn't get my dealer to pay for it and had to do it myself. It's not hard to replace but you'll be hard pressed finding an OEM hose for <$200. It is the most expensive PS hose on the car. It turns out that there are many on this board that have had this problem with this specific hose.
