If you hear a screeching noise coming from your engine, especially during start-ups on cold mornings, or on sharp turns, it may be time to call Car-X Tire & Auto. These sounds may indicate a problem with your serpentine belt, which most often fail between 36,000 and 50,000 miles.
If your serpentine belt breaks, all of the engine parts it is powering will stop working. Your engine could overheat and be damaged. That’s why it’s so critical to have your vehicle serviced right away
When inspecting your serpentine belt, your Car-X Man will look for:
– Cracks
– Wear
– Stripping
We can’t stress the importance of maintenance enough. But when your car’s in trouble, we’re here for you.

Car-X recommends getting new tires every 30,000 or 40,000 miles. If your tire tread is at 4/32 of an inch, it is a good time to consider getting new tires. Anything less and the tire is considered “bald,” and legally worn out in most states.
