Just got the phone call from the dealership, my 2011 Lexus IS350's serpentine belt is no good and it is NOT covered under warranty.
Is this true?

Just checked the price of the belt at Sewells. $31.23 with clublexus discount.

but right now I'm leaning towards dealership just because they already have my car there I'm still under warranty and want to keep a "relationship" with them until it runs out. Also, I'm kinda abusing the 2014 IS250 they gave me as a loaner right now. I kinda like it. I think.

Is this pretty normal for a s. belt to go bad at around 35K miles though

Looking like your dealer is not doing due diligence in trouble shooting. Not a good sign. What else do they NOT know? Any other Lex dealer near you?
