Potential Abrasion Wear Issue ?

/EDIT

I always inspect my vehicles during oil changes.

The following photo is a shot underneath the hood of a 2016. (purchased new, no servicing done)
Squared in red, there's a small-diameter hose, rubbing against an electrical plug.
It is not secured. It has not had a hole worn in it... yet?

What function does this line serve? It could be a vacuum line, but a vacuum line for what system?

If you find this hose underneath your hood, is it secured and is it routed identically ?
Have you secured or rerouted it?
Does it look like you are close to, or may have worn a hole in the line?
Any problems of note, if you have worn a hole, or worn it thin enough to collapse?

Other unrelated things I noticed during my inspection.
* https://1drv.ms/i/s!AhsZJDCN8kMMi1qeYwfaTjDPAw7I (may be normal with brake rotor/pad wear - primary reservoir still full)
https://1drv.ms/i/s!AhsZJDCN8kMMi1y_W-dnQyv9XNQs
* With front on jack stands (not flat) coolant level right at MIN at ~70°F - level should be comfortably above MIN once vehicle is lowered/level
* Blower Motor (*not* engine fan) quit working after oil change. (pure coincidence)

BLOWER MOTOR
Fired up the vehicle after the oil change and noticed I no longer had any blower motor function; all indicators fine.
Reseating what I think may be the blower motor relay has seemed to resolve it for now.
Two things I noticed, there is no fuse center cover and, the wire harnesses don't have the typical OEM sheathing.
This car being new that leads me to ask, do you have a cover over your passenger compartment fuse & relay center and, do your wire harnesses look like below?
It is located behind the glove box. Simply squeeze the top-rear portion of the glove box to fold down for a look.

Thanks.

Here is my stock 7/16 build date '16. The line you are highlighting is routed higher up on mine and doesn't appear to be rubbing on that connector.
I have not changed the routing, and don't know what the line is. View attachment 14635 View attachment 14636

I would top of the coolant to meet the 'max' line.
there's no cover for the passenger side fuse box.
the coolant overflow line doesn't appear to be routed correctly and your primary reservoir is *not* full.

you can see the max level line right through the opening and it's far from it, looks to be below the minimum line actually.

How low does the main reservoir have to get until the cluster brake warning light appears?

Intuit;

At the very least, for now (until you can re-route it properly), I would wrap that line in some self adhering silicone tape, and then cover it with some small (1/4"?) split loom convoluted wire shielding.

That picture is not the coolant reservoir but the brake overflow. The brake reservoir is down under the cowl. Any fluid in the upper chamber is enough.

I know that, I was replying to multiple questions he had. My coolant overflow reply was in reference to this skinny line below. The picture quoted above is answering his brake fluid question.
