Genuine GM Belts And Hoses

Many parts have to move at the same time for any vehicle to run properly. Belts and hoses are what move them. How they work is straightforward. Belts move things mechanically. Serpentine and drive belts, for instance, move parts of alternators, power steering systems, and more. Timing belts and chains, for another example, rotate camshafts, keeping engine valves and pistons moving in time. Hoses are different. They move things using liquid pressure. Radiator hoses, for instance, move coolant back and forth between radiators and engines. Heater core hoses pass coolant along AC and heating systems, helping warm a cabin. Fuel hoses connect engines to gas tanks in older vehicles. Brake hoses push brake fluid through brake lines to brake calipers and pads, fastening them to brake rotors. Many other belts and hoses do much more. However, both can go bad, unfortunately.

What Are the Signs Belts and Hoses Are Failing or Have Gone Bad?

Look for looseness, leaking, and visible damage, listen for squeaks, test for battery issues, and keep an eye out for interior lighting malfunctions.
