Gates 13-21 Buick Encore 4-Cyl. 1.4L Serpentine Standard V-Ribbed Belt

When it's time to replace the belt that drives your engine's accessories on your 2013-2016 Buick Encore with the 1.4L engine, a Gates serpentine belt is a solid choice. This belt is what keeps your alternator, power steering pump, and air conditioning compressor working correctly.

Gates has been a well-known name in belts for a long time, and this standard V-ribbed belt is built to handle the daily demands of your engine. It's made with materials that resist cracking and wear, so you can expect it to last. The precise ribbing ensures it grips the pulleys firmly, preventing slippage and keeping everything running at the right speed. It's designed to fit right without any fuss, making the replacement job straightforward.

When you're doing this job, it's a good time to check the condition of your belt tensioner and any idler pulleys. If they feel rough or make noise, they might need replacing too, to ensure the new belt works its best.
