5 out of 10 times, if I have my defroster on, or the AC on....then turn the car off....I hear a light squeal the slows down and stops for about 3 seconds. The dealer replaced the belt 3 weeks ago....then I heard it again yesterday. This this might have to be replaced....the car, that is!

If climate control is off, there is no noise.
