What is a Chevrolet Trax accessory belt?

The accessory belt (also called the auxiliary belt or serpentine belt) allows the engine to drive peripheral components such as the alternator, air conditioning compressor, power steering pump, and sometimes the water pump.

When should you change the Chevrolet Trax accessory belt?

Typical replacement is every 60,000–120,000 km or 4–6 years. Signs of wear include: squealing noise (especially at start-up or in wet weather), visible cracks or fraying. Always replace the tensioner and any idler pulleys at the same time.
