Why do PS and alternator belts shred and break on 03 Mazda protege after 8 months?
Usually belts shred due to 1) bad or seized Power Steering pump or belt tensioner
2) Mis-Aligned pulleys or belt tensioner.
3) gremlins (or maybe nicked the belt during other repairs and it wore badly)
just happened to me and I replaced tensioner as mine had seized. it started making horrible squealing sounds after the repair. I replaced the pump and all was well after that.
