Vans & Minivans Chrysler/Plymouth Voyager, Dodge Caravan Caravan/Voyager Serpentine Belt

You are in the Chrysler/Plymouth Voyager, Dodge Caravan Forum. Your Host is Karens
My wife has a 2000 Plymouth Voyager that lately has ruined two serpentine belts. As the belt comes down off of the tensioner it makes its way around the power steering pump then around the rest of the accessories. The belt starts working its way along the edging of the steering pump pulley, I believe either the pulley may be slightly bent (which it does not seem to be) or the tensioner is wearing out. Has anyone else had this problem or have any solutions?

Replying to: flavife (Mar 06, 2007 1:44 pm) I checked this and, YES, there is a service bulletin which requires a new belt, tensioner and a shield. They also have a Pulley guard (essentially a washer that keeps the belt from slipping off Chrysler part # 500 3480 AA. I'm on my way to get that right now. I will try to put the belt on myself. May need some special tool to tension the belt and will find out and let you guys know. Chrysler sucs, in my opinion. I called them in Detroit and got no help. They should have told us about this a long time ago. This will be my 6th belt and lots of aggravation. Next time I'm buying a Toyota.
