Gates 03-06 Dodge Stratus 4-Cyl. 2.4L Tensioner Assy. Belt Drive Tensioner

If you're working on the accessory drive system for your 2001-2007 Dodge Caravan, or a compatible Chrysler Sebring, Voyager, or Dodge Stratus with the 2.4L 4-cylinder engine, this Gates belt tensioner assembly is what you need. This part is crucial for maintaining the correct tension on your serpentine belt, ensuring that all the accessories it drives—like the alternator, power steering pump, and A/C compressor—run smoothly and efficiently.

Gates is a well-known name in belt systems, and this tensioner is built to meet the demands of daily driving. It's designed to replace your old, worn-out tensioner, which can often become noisy or fail to hold proper tension, leading to belt slippage and reduced accessory performance. A properly functioning tensioner is key to preventing premature belt wear and ensuring all your engine's accessories get the power they need.

When replacing your belt tensioner, it's always a good idea to inspect the condition of the serpentine belt itself. If the belt shows signs of cracking, fraying, or excessive wear, it should be replaced at the same time to ensure the new tensioner works with a fresh belt and to avoid potential issues down the road.
