What does a Drive Belt do?
Drive Belts are an essential component of your vehicle as it provides power to the alternator, air conditioning compressor, air pump, water pump, and power steering pump. Drive belts need regular maintenance to ensure the normal working of your vehicle.
Drive belts are made from rubber and with time they wear out or degrade and require replacements. The Drive Belt is responsible for transferring power to different components, and its failure can cause a discharged battery or lack of power steering.
At MAT Mobile Mechanics, we strongly recommend that you don’t drive if your drive belt slips or breaks down as it risks causing further damage to your vehicle and puts the safety of others on the road at risk. Contact us for Drive Belt services in South West Sydney and nearby areas!
