The serpentine belt tensioner applies pressure to the serpentine belt, maintaining optimal tension to drive the accessories like the alternator and A/C compressor. At Tuffy TIre & Auto Service Center Orland Park we know that the service life of the belt tensioner is the same as the belt itself, so they should always be replaced together. A worn tensioner prevents the accessories from spinning properly, leading to premature wear and noise for Orland Park drivers.
Your vehicle manufacturer has a recommended mileage interval for serpentine belt replacement.
