Serpentine belts are used on a Dodge Neon to operating the engine accessories like the alternator, water pump, and air conditioner compressor. The power is provided by the engine's crankshaft.

Replace or tighten the A/C belt. If equipped with a serpentine belt, replace it.
Three: A timing belt and two serpentine belts. The timing belt drives the water pump and camshaft The serpentine belts drive the power steering, ac, and alternator.
Loose or worn A/C drive belt. Tighten or replace. If serpentine belt, replace.
Take the passenger side tire off and remove the splash guards... should be easy from there
Uppermost pulley is the Power steering pump. Those 2 bolts that hold it on are the take-up bolts, loosen those and the belt will become loose. Easy.1996 Neon has 2 separate belts not a serpentine. I would assume the 1995 is the same.
The belt tensioner is probably bad.
BELT
The timing belt on a Dodge Neon should be replaced every 100,000 miles.
you sell your dodge, and then buy a hybrid. No, this is not the answer to your question, but it saves gas, and is better for the environment. Or you can ignore that stupid comment and wait for an intelligent answer to your question
No, timing belt.
I have the same problem. The belt squals everytime you hit a puddle or when it rains. The best thing to do is go to a junk yard and pull one off if your lucky or go to a chrysler dodge dealer and they can order one but its costly.
