5 Signs a Vehicle’s Belts or Hoses Need Inspection:

• Your engine sounds like it's running rough
• Your vehicle stalls when at a stop
• You hear knocking or pinging sounds when accelerating or after the ignition is turned off
• You notice bulging or inflated hoses
• Your hoses feel hard or inflexible

Why Replacing Your Belts and Hoses is Important

Replacing vehicle and engine belts and hoses at the first sign of wear helps avoid unexpected breakdowns and the engine damage that overheating can cause. More specifically:

• Leaking or ruptured coolant hoses can result in an overheated engine or a vehicle breakdown
• Power-steering hoses are critical to safe vehicle operation
• A broken or worn-out belt can leave your vehicle inoperable

How Often Should a Vehicle’s Belts and Hoses be Inspected or Replaced?

Belts and hoses help ensure that your vehicle's components work together to operate smoothly and precisely. To avoid problems let us check your belts and hoses at every oil change. Recommendations vary between vehicle manufacturers and models. Motorist Assurance Program guidelines recommend referring to your vehicle owner's manual for replacement and/or service.
