Usually the cause is age, heat, oil leaks onto the belt, and a worn tensioner or pulley bearing.

Typical signs are a squealing noise from the front of the engine, visible cracks or fraying on the belt, or a battery or temperature warning light. If you ignore it, a snapped belt that stops the water pump and alternator, which can lead to overheating and a dead battery on the road.
