Serpentine Belt snapped while driving/Steering Lock failure info

I'm glad it's being covered under warranty. Call me overly paranoid, but on every car I've owned with a serp belt, I've replaced belt, tensioner and idler pulleys all at the same time.

I think I'm going to have to start doing that. I've only owned 2 vehicles prior, a scion tC that I drove from the dealer to 84k miles and only replaced it once at the 40k mark then a g35 from 90k to 121k miles and had no pulley or belt problems whatsoever. Good lesson though
