About Engine Belt Replacement

BulletIcon•
Several types of engine belts need to be replaced from time to time. Vehicles from 1990 and newer typically have a serpentine belt. The belt snakes around the pulleys located at the front of the engine (or the side of a transverse-mounted engine) and drives multiple accessories including the alternator, power steering pump and air conditioning compressor. If it is squeaking or worn, it could break, which would make the engine inoperable. Check it at 60,000 miles but change it before 100,000 miles. Older vehicles usually have separate belts for the water pump, alternator, radiator fan and air conditioning system, but when they break, you still may be able to get home. Finally, engine timing belts help to keep the camshaft and crankshaft in sync so that pistons and valves operate in sync. They typically last from 60,000 to 90,000 miles. A broken timing belt could result in engine damage and an expensive rebuild.

Acura Dealership Repair Options

When you purchase an Acura, it’s good advice to consider repairs through factory-authorized dealers and service centers. They have firsthand knowledge of your vehicle and are always up to date in the latest service bulletins from the manufacturer. And if you’re leasing, many car leases including those from American Honda Finance Co (AHFC) require the use of Acura original equipment parts when making the car whole again.

While independent shops or big box automotive service centers may offer attractive rates, you can be assured Acura dealers will be using genuine Acura parts in performing repairs.

Training

Acura service mechanics receive periodic factory training on the latest techniques necessary to keep your Acura investment running properly. They include the Honda Service Technical College (HSTC) and Honda Professional Automotive Career Training (PACT), which trains Acura and Honda dealership mechanics and technicians to become better equipped with knowledge for an effective repair of your Acura vehicle.

Loan car policy

If you purchased Acura Plus and the repair is covered, and the actual repair time is over 5 hours you may be entitled to a Car Rental under the Acura Plus Car Rental provisions. If you are a regular customer of an individual dealer, some may offer loaner cars for repairs taking more than two hours.
