It is a drain tube for the pan housing the heater core. If the heater core leaks it will go out that pipe instead of inside your car.

You could just need to flush our your coolant pipes. Detach both hoses leading to passenger side firewall and spray into one of the pipes with a hose. It will come out the other pipe. This solved my problem in my '91 Ranger.

How do you replace the heater core on a 1992 Expo?

A lot of heater cores on newer cars can be replaced from inside the engine compartment - much easier than spelunking up under the dash. Look at the firewall on the passenger side and determine where the heater hoses ( a pair of rubber hoses about 2" in diameter - one feed and one return) connect to the heater core. Most heater cores have the feed and return pipes protruding from the firewall. See if there is a panel that is removable from the firewall side - you might just get lucky. I am doing one of these in the next few days so we'll see just how hard it is.

How do you change a heater switch on a Saturn Vue?

On the front passenger side interior of the car, where the passenger's left foot would be, there's a plastic panel there that is attached to the main center console. Pull it off: it's held by a velcro type thing. You should see 2 pipes: those pipes connect to the heater core. There are 2 plastic clips: 1 on each pipe. unclip each clip. Make sure ALL radiator fluid is flushed and have PLENTY of towels and/or a drip pan inside the car. Be careful not to damage those pipes as they are aluminum. Pull the pipes down out of the core; it will get messy. Pull the core right out and replace. Do not lose the rubber gaskets and the plastic gaskets! Installation is reverse of removal. Good luck!
