Drive belt slips off periodically in wet weather.

Mechanic has inspected belt and tensioner and found no problems. Belt replaced at 200,000 miles.

Make sure the splash shield is in place that protects that area. If your mechanic has visually inspected your pulley alignment and tensioner tensioner and everything seems ok, no other contamination, put a new tensioner and new belt on and use Mopar parts. That will clear it up, not much to it. Ok Unless a component on the system is siezing up at times. When the belt is off carefully inspect the driving and driven surfaces carefully.
