"I have a 2007 Rinker 320EC with twin 5.0L eningines with about 40 freshwater hours. The serpentine belt on the port side engine came off last year while cruising about 30 mph. The dealer replaced the power steering pump brackets after Volvo told them that they had an alignment problem with some of them, they also put on new belts with slices in them to eliminate a "chirping" noise they made at idle. The chirping noise was eliminated but the belt came off the port side engine again, causing the engine to overheat. Has anyone else had this problem?"
