A routine check under your hood can catch minor issues before they cause a pricey breakdown.
Your coolant hoses are flexible tubes that supply a pliable connection for coolant flow between the radiator, engine, and heating block. Microscopic cracks can form on the inside, damage the hose, and cause an overheated engine. If your vehicle is continually low on coolant, you may have a problem with your radiator hose. To know if repairs are needed, have your vehicle hoses inspected twice a year.
Belts
Serpentine belts deliver power to the power steering pump, air conditioning compressor, air injection pump, cooling fan, and more.
If your serpentine belt breaks, all of these parts can stop working, and your engine could overheat.
Warning sounds of serpentine belt damage include a screeching noise from your engine or frays and tears within the belt. To understand more, you can have it reviewed each time you have an oil change.
