1993 Plymouth Acclaim mileage: 100,000. I have a quick question regarding the alternator belt in my car. Last year during the winter the alternator serpentine belt fell off while backing out of some deep snow. I put the belt back on. This summer the belt started squealing so I replaced it. Now the belt has fallen off three times already when driving through rain puddles. What can I do to prevent the belt from falling off when driving through puddles (the puddles are not that big and everyone else can go through them)?

Check the alignment of the pulleys and replace the belt tensioner.
