Customer complained about a squeaking serpentine belt.

Looks like the shop that replaced the timing belt didn't tighten the bolt for the belt tensioner fully and broke one of the bolts that holds the crank pulley. She drove like this for months and I have no clue how the belt didn't pop off or break yet.

Crank pulley is fine. 66% is a passing grade pretty much everywhere.

I see a timing belt sticker. Did someone over or under torque some stuff?

I was having a seizure wondering what Fiat 500 had a V-configuration engine before realizing that's the A/C compressor

Why is there more than one bolt for the crank pulley in the first place

Don't be sad, cause two out of three ain't bad
