What causes the serpentine belt to come off when you run into a puddle of water?

I can't say that water is your problem, I have never heard of water doing this. I would start by checking to see if your tension-er is creating enough tension. It is possible to put an oversize belt on a vehicle which would cause the belt to be loose.Poor pulley alignment is another possibility. Good luck! R.K.
