Cost of changing DRIVE BELT

I did a search, but i didn't see anyone listed the prices. Can someone let me know how much it would cost at Nissan / Infiniti dealership to have them change the drive belt? I went to get an oil change and they told me the drive belt is cracked. They recommended me to change it. Thanks in advance.

Do it yourself it takes about 10 min and all you need is a socket set and the belt

I just called Nissan, they're quoted me $180 for one belt and $210 for two belts. How many drive belts do we have?

I just called Infiniti too. I asked them how many belts do we have, she said two. I specifically told them i need to replace the "Drive Belt." She said two belts for $175.00 at Infiniti. So we'll see.

I brought my G in last week for oil-change. During the multi-point inspection, they found my engine drive belt cracking. They quoted me $225 part/labor to get it replaced. I'm bringing it in tomorrow to get it fixed. But seriously, $225 is a lot for a small wear and tear replacement.
