2020 Ford Escape - Tensioner Pulley
Ford Escape Tensioner Pulley
The tensioner pulley for your Ford Escape guides the belt as it moves around the tensioner, allowing the belt to spin without hindrance while the tensioner applies pressure to it. If the tensioner pulley fails. it can lead to a loss of power in the systems that are driven by the belt. Signs that your tensioner pulley is failing include hearing squeaking or squealing from under the hood. This may also be a symptom of a stretched belt or worn tensioner, and it may be best to replace all of the belt drive components at once for a complete repair. O'Reilly Auto Parts carries replacement tensioner pulleys, serpentine belts, and the tools needed to complete these repairs on your Escape.
