I had a similar issue in my 2001 grand am. Turned out the power steering pump pulley was not properly seated on the shaft, causing the pulley to be slightly out of line of the other pulleys. It was hard for me to see it, that's how miniscule it was. Bottom line is I would do a thorough check of all the pulleys in the serpentine line first for any visible damage. If all seems ok on that front, I'd take the vehicle to a repair shop to make sure all of the pulleys are in alignment. If one, for example the power steering pump pulley is out of line, not only will it continue to tear up belts, but could potentially damage the power steering pump as well. Hope this helps!
