Drive Belt Inspection
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2021 Kia Soul. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Visually check the belt for excessive wear, frayed cords etc.
If any defect has been found, replace the drive belt.
NOTE:
Cracks on the rib side of a belt are considered acceptable. If the belt has chunks missing from the ribs, it should be replaced.
