This happened to me... if the belt is too narrow it will start to rinde down the pulley groove and loosen up. As it does this it burns the edges and get narrower each time you tighten it. Make sure you get a replacement that is 15mm wide. I had bought the narrow belts at the dealer and they had the same part number as the ones that I replaced so you have to really get out a ruler and measure the belt width. My local NAPA had belts that fit correctly and I have not had the problem come back
