Just got off the phone with the repair shop. Basically what happened.
Bearings going bad in the fan hub. Allowing the fan to move around. Chewed through belt.

Replaced belt. Didn't know that the bearings are going bad.

Bearings failed later. Letting the fan to chew into intercooler. Fan blades broke and took out the bottom radiator tank. And ripping the wiring out from the ecu controller. The damage to the intercooler and radiator is bad enough to warrant replacement, not repair.

The renters muddy everything up as they still wanted to go to the beach. They wants the shop to overnight the parts, and that would have cost another $650. Wife put a stop to that. So the renters are out of the picture now.
