You need a new belt tensioner. A bent belt tensioner will eventually break and cause the serpentine belt to come off. You will experience a loss of power steering, your A/C compressor will stop working and your battery will die as well seeing as your alternator will not be driven. All those items are powered by your serpentine belt.
Your belt on your 1996 Honda Civic Dx makes noises when you down shift or stop what belt is that?
It can be the cam belt or the serpentine belt. The cam belt must be replaced every 90,000 miles. Warning: This is an interference engine. If the belt breaks you will have serious engine damage. Replace the cam belt if it is due for replacement. Inspect the serpentine belt and replace if you see any cracks or fraying. If the serpentine belt looks fine or you replace it and the noise is still there, replace the cam belt no matter when it was last replaced. It can be the idler pulley for the cam belt needs replacing and is not holding the correct tension on the belt. This can cause the belt to break even if it is new.
Will a serpentine belt that breaks and wraps around the crankshaft and breaks the timing belt hurt the motor in a 03 Saturn vue?
I'll try to answer this clearly. First of all if the timing belt breaks it can hurt the engine. A value can be open when it should closed and it can be hit by the piston. The serpentine belt breaking and wrapping around the crank shaft is HIGHLY unlikely to cause the timing belt to break. The crank shaft supplies the pull and push to the timing belt not the cam shaft. You would have to cause the crank to stop immediately to have any chance of it breaking the timing belt. The serpentine belt is not strong enough, even when wedged behind the pulley, to stop the crank that quickly.
