SERPENTINE BELT REPLACEMENT

The serpentine belt is a single, continuous belt that drives multiple devices in your engine, such as the alternator, power steering pump, water pump and air conditioning compressor. If your serpentine belt breaks, all of these systems will shut down and your vehicle will overheat. A regular inspection and possible serpentine belt replacement from a Jiffy Lube® Technicians will allow all these vital systems keep you and your vehicle on the road.

A symptom that indicates the serpentine belt may need replacing is an unfamiliar noise or screech from the engine compartment caused by a frayed, split or worn out belt. Jiffy Lube® Technicians visually inspect the serpentine belt for fraying, splitting, glazing (the working edge of the belt becomes shiny from age and wear) or any other damage. If necessary, your Jiffy Lube® Technicians will remove the old serpentine belt and install a new one.
