Belt squeel or chirping

When I start the truck up espicially after sitting for a few days the belt has a soft squeel or chirp to it that gets a little quieter after you drive it but you can still hear it when you stand towards the front of the truck. Is there something simple we are supposed to do to keep the belts from squeeling or is it not a big deal, is it doing it because it sits for days at a time or does the belt need to be replaced under warranty?

Thanks for any input!

-Dan

If you are still under the 36K warranty. Take it in or call the dealer to be sure.

The belt has a self tensioner that will keep the belt tight.
