The belt is, but if it's the alternator, it will need to get rebuilt or get a second hand one.

p.s. until you know for sure, STOP DRIVING IT.

Check water level in battery.If its low it will not charge.light will come on.

You might as well tell her to check if the car has a tow bar. The result will be the same either way.

Some might say because it has the 3 diamonds . no good can come of that, I tell you. You're all doomed. Doomed!

You either have a stuffed alternator, or a missing alternator belt.
