Serpentine Belt & Maintenance

The serpentine belt is a long continuous loop made of durable rubber. The belt’s purpose is to deliver energy from the crankshaft to components that require energy to function, such as the water pump, alternator, power steering pump, and A/C compressor. The serpentine belt is susceptible to wear and tear and should be replaced at the recommended interval, or if it develops problems regardless of miles.

Bad Serpentine Belt Indicators

It is always best to detect and replace a bad serpentine belt before it breaks. If the serpentine belt breaks while driving, the belt-driven components will fail immediately. It will be nearly impossible to turn the steering wheel and engine overheating will occur quickly. Be sure to get prompt maintenance if you notice any of these bad serpentine belt indicators:

Physical damage - cracking, fraying, or rib separation
Squealing sound from the engine that often worsens with acceleration
More difficult or impossible to turn the steering wheel
The air conditioner not working
Check engine light
Engine overheating
