Belt Life , 2004 Hyundai

Reply from: Donald Keeney

I just bought a 2004 Hyundai with 90 k on the odometer and wonder if it
is past the mileage point for replacement . My last car had 70 k listed
as a good point for a primary belt change. The warranty goes to 100 k
but I doubt that thisis covered.
Thanks for any replies,...

I would doubt this is covered as well, but could be wrong. This is a
regular
maintenance item, I would think.

If you dont know for sure, from service records, that this belt has been
changed,
then I would get it changed immediately. This is an interference engine and
can
be destroyed if that belt fails.

So far as I can tell, serpentine belts seem to outlast engines. If
it's a timing belt you are referring to, change it.
