Belts & Hoses

Belts and hoses are extremely important to your vehicle. They are one of the most common reasons for vehicle break down. To help prevent this, make sure your belts and hoses are checked at regular intervals. An easy way to remember is to have them checked every 3,000 miles or with every oil change at Tires and Brakes for Less.  During a belt inspection our technicians at Tires and Brakes for Less check each belt for:

  • Glazing, cracking, peeling and softening
  • Proper tensioning
  • Proper drive pulley alignment

During a hose inspection our technicians at Tires and Brakes for Less check for:

  • Leaks
  • Hardening, cracking and softening
  • A cooling system pressure test to help check for leaks
  • Loose or worn clamps
