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 Gahanna 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 Gahanna drivers.
Your vehicle manufacturer has a recommended mileage interval for serpentine belt replacement.

Your friendly and professional Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Center Gahanna service advisor can inspect your system and let you know if it’s time for a replacement.
