Yep... sounds like the belt went away.

Easy fix - get the new belt (buy at dealer - aftermarket belts are a problem) and a 24mm wrench or socket (preferred), add 20 min. of your time and it's done.

Be sure to examine the idler pulleys, alternator, ps and ac pulleys too to be sure that their bearings didn't sieze causing the belt to fail. Turn them by hand to make sure they're turning freely/smoothly.

Cheers!
