Hey-I have a 1995 Mazda Protege, 1.5 L, 96,000 miles. Mechanic put a new alternator and belt on before I purchased it. Now about 2 weeks later the belt has broke. Any ideas what happen?
Thanks and be blessed!

Hi there,

There could be a number of reasons, overtightened, faulty belt, misalignment, or just bad luck. If the new belt breaks again, check alignment and make sure that the belt is on over tight.
