The timing belt tensioner plays a necessary role in your vehicle's engine by maintaining the correct tension on the timing belt. This ensures that the engine's valves open and close at the right times, which is crucial for optimal engine performance. Without a properly functioning tensioner, the timing belt could slip or break, leading to significant engine damage. This component is typically located in the engine compartment, near the timing belt itself.
The USEP-4892109AA timing belt tensioner is designed for specific Dodge and Chrysler models, including the Dodge Nitro, Journey, Magnum, Charger, Challenger, and Minivan, as well as the Chrysler 300, and Pacifica. It also fits the Dodge Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country minivans. It is compatible with 3.5L (V6-214) and 4.0L (V6-241) engines. Made from durable metal and rubber materials, this tensioner uses existing hardware for installation, ensuring a secure fit. Only one tensioner is required per vehicle.
