Serpentine Belt Service
Chevrolet Serpentine Belt Inspection, Repairs, or Replacement
One of the most well-known belts beneath your hood, the serpentine belt is large and flat with a ribbed surface. The crankshaft is responsible for this belt operating, and it is essential for the main operations such as the alternator, power steering, and air conditioning among others. Over time, this belt wears down due to consistent use. When it is showing signs of deterioration, it is time to have it serviced with a certified technician. When your Chevrolet is brought into the service center, the old belt will be removed from beneath the hood and replaced with the correct serpentine belt to fit your Chevrolet model. It will also be tested by our technicians before it is released back to you for your protection.
Importance of Service Your Serpentine Belt
It is recommended that this service be completed every 90k miles on your Chevrolet. This should be maintained regularly because this piece is essential to so many foundational functions and can cause your entire car to stop operating. When this serpentine belt is replaced, you can have peace of mind regarding other functions such as your alternator and power steering that allow you the ability to drive easily and comfortably. If your serpentine belt is showing signs of malfunctioning much earlier than the average 90,000-mile lifespan, then have the technicians review the crankshaft and the pulleys that work with the belt to ensure proper operation.
Schedule Service
Don’t Ignore Possible Issues
If you choose not to schedule the service right away, you will find yourself unable to drive your car. Once the serpentine belt completely snaps, the power steering and alternator will fail to operate, making the Chevrolet non-drivable. By not having the serpentine belt replaced immediately, you could risk your personal safety and that of others traveling around you on the highway.
