Belt came lose started to make noise.
Top under cover moved over and just touched the cover enough to rub it and wear/melt it (nice arch hole not a random heat sink mark)
Not enough friction alternator not charging and get light.
Water pump not driven car over heats.
Power steering is electric (not belt driven pump) but drain on system drops power below required.
Belt eventually worked right off pulleys.


Best case = Fix belt check coolent all good.
Worst case = Damage (possibly major) to engine from overheating.
