OEM Mopar Power Steering Belts

Your power steering belt is an important part of your vehicle's power steering system. It can be either a V belt or, more commonly, a serpentine belt. Either way, the belt's separate from the one that drives your water pump. What it does is supply power to your steering and, sometimes, the air conditioning compressor and alternator.

Signs of Power Steering Belt Damage

Unfortunately, over time, power steering belts can crack, break, loosen, or wear out from use, and this can lead to complete belt failure. At that point, you'll end up with steering problems, especially if the belt breaks. Luckily, there are symptoms you can look for before that happens. Other than obvious belt damage, like pilling, they include:

• Squealing, grinding, or chirping noises from the front of your vehicle
• Belt slippage
• Oil covering the belt
• Gravel stuck in the belt
• Uneven rib wear or cracking
• Total rib separation

However, if you hear a high-pitched whining when you turn your steering wheel, or you experience delayed steering response, you've probably got a different problem -- one with your power steering pump. Otherwise, if you're seeing any of these signs, replacing your power steering belt may be necessary.
