Belts which are at incorrect tension levels can cause a squealing, or if they are wet.
This is often caused by a worn belt tensioner on its way out. If so, it will soon seize up, or come apart, leaving you stranded with a shredded or loose serpentine belt.
The squeal can also be caused by a worn serpentine belt (lots of cracks in the underside), a worn steering pump, a worn water pump, a worn alternator (these usually whine rather than squeal), or anything else that turns, such as an idler pulley.
