Signs You Need Water Pump Replacement for Your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or Ram Vehicle
Given that vehicles can vary in how long their water pumps and related parts in their cooling systems last, it's best practice to check your car, truck, or SUV's owner's manual. Most tend to last somewhere between 60,000 to 90,000 miles, but some can last for shorter or longer periods depending upon the usage of your vehicle and your driving style. If you notice that your engine coolant's temperature is higher than usual, or if you spot steam streaming out of the front of your vehicle, these can be major indicators of water pump failure. Fluid leaks from your engine and inconsistent temperature readings on the gauge on your dashboard can also be indicators that your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or Ram vehicle may be in need of a water pump replacement.
What's Included in a Water Pump Replacement Service
Replacing a water pump can often involve the removal of a timing belt. It's best practice to replace the water pump when replacing the timing belt, especially if the timing belt powers the water pump. Replacing a drive belt or other thermometers is typical as well with the replacement of a water pump, as you want to be sure that the entire system is healthy, and not being dragged down by one poorly-performing part.
