The dealership is reporting that my heater hoses are leaking coolant. The engine fan revs on high often, especially after highway driving. The dealership is quoting $1,095 to repair. Is this right?

Don’t know if you are asking if the hoses are actually leaking or if the price is correct.  
Simple solution , get a second opinion from an independent shop . Also the price might be lower.

In the meantime check your coolant level, when engine is cold, very frequently. If you delay the repair and overheat your engine it is going to cost a lot more.  
Get your second opinion ASAP.
