There are different types of issues that can arise with your vehicle’s heating and cooling system and these issues can range from something as small as a clogged drain hose to something as major as an air conditioning unit that has stopped functioning.

As a general rule of thumb, the more expensive the car, the more important it is that the car receive the correct level of maintenance.
Heater and AC Belt Repair & Replacement
Heater and AC belt repair and replacement are necessary when one of the belt’s sheathing is cracked, split, or worn out, causing the belt to break or slip. The most common repair for these belts is to replace the sheathing. This is because the sheathing is what holds the belt together and allows it to turn the compressor and heater. Another common repair is to install a new belt.
