We don't really use the cart that often, but if we continue to use it as we have it will need another new belt in 6 months.

Are y'all changing your belts 2 or more times per year??? Would someone who uses their cart constantly have to change this belt monthly?
Have 400 hours on mine and bet that it has gone about 6-7K miles. Never had a problem and still has original belts. Look at them about once a month and they look good. Never squealed. Not a mechanic but it appears that the pulleys are out of alignment. Another reason I distrust Villages Golf Cart service
