I just discovered this past HOT weekend that my A/C belt was missing. There was no evidence of collateral damage, nor was there any part of a broken belt to be found under the hood.

I had had no work done on the car other than an oil change, where I was present the entire time in the service bay. It's probably very unusual, but this belt can apparantly fail and go missing all on its own

The service advisor didn't believe it at first, but under the terms of my 2004 Infiniti Elite extended warranty, the A/C belt was actually covered

 

"where did it go George"

 

a rat probably ate it.

 

AC compressor got hungry.

 

I had the same problem also, my ac was working last year but my mechanic told me 100 bucks.

 

yeah its uncommon for belts to "disappear" it happens for two reasons, belts rip or the tensioners get loose. on my old 240sx the alternate belt flew off and i didnt notice untill my car died on the freeway, it sucked

 

I wonder is it covered under warrenty, 3rd party warrenty that this.

 

$100 for what exactly?

 

Its a new magic trick your car wanted to show you.

 

or maybe your car just hates you
