Avoid Breakdowns By Watching Over Your Belts and Hoses

The experienced technicians at Prestige Tire & Auto Service Center have seen many cars that have fallen victim to broken belts or busted hoses. We can certainly help you if this happens to your car. We can also check your belts/hoses when we perform periodic maintenance. Schedule an appointment for auto repair Kingston NY at Prestige Tire & Auto Service Center.
Radiator Hoses
Directing antifreeze into and out of the radiator, the two radiator hoses are vital components. If either were to bust, the whole system would break down. These hoses do become brittle over time due to the acidic nature of the fluids that race through them each time you drive. To evaluate your radiator hoses, check them when the car is cool. You may feel soft patches or, conversely, a very hard hose. A bulge is a major warning sign that the hose may burst. You can skip the hassle and just have a Prestige technician examine the hoses for you. 
Heater Hoses
If your heat isn't working, it may be the hose. Leaking, it creates ineffective heat flow. If it’s busted, you will hear your HVAC fan working but you won’t get any heat flow. Prestige Tire & Auto Service Center technicians can get your heat back in shape for winter.
Drive Belts
Although they have been phased out, serpentine and timing belts are still in many cars on the road today. Dangerous signs include too much cracking or glazing. You’ll save yourself from a possible roadside breakdown if you address this issue promptly. Why not bring the car for periodic maintenance and have the technicians take a look while they are already under the hood. 
For reliable auto repair Kingston NY, bring your car to Prestige Tire & Auto Service Center.
