It could be the alternator. It has a clutch inside the pulley that is supposed to cushion the shock on the belt when the AC kicks in and out, causing the belt to jump off

Replace the belt tensioner. This is a common problem. They also have a pulley available for the tensioner that has edges on it to keep this from happening.

How stop the serpentine belt from fallen off the tensioner on a 1993 town & country. Is there a aftermarket pulley wheel for that tensioner to replace the flaw problems.

My 1991 Grand Caravan did that too. It had the 3.3L engine just the the T&C (91-93). The tensioner was the problem, hit a puddle on the right side and you'd feel the power steering go and then right away the engine would start to heat up. I tried making the belt come off, but could never duplicate it, only splashing through puddles of rain or wet slush would do it. I never found a tensioner with shoulders on it, but a new one like the original fixed it.

Replace serpentine belt 96 town & country, also does the tensioner ever freeze up?

Any bearing mounted pulley can "freeze" if a bearing wears out. The most common result it it can burn up a belt which will break with the engine running. When it snaps it MIGHT damage anything it hits - usually with no bad results. ANY bad pulley (or pulley driven part such as the alternator) needs to be replaced before a new belt is installed or the new belt will be damaged from the friction. To replace the serpentine belt - there should be a belt routing decal on the underside of the hood or on the shroud covering the radiator.

How do you put the serpentine belt on? From underneath?

For the 3.8 liter engine, to install the belt, use a 14 mm straight wrench with a
breaker pipe (I use a jack handle) slipped over the wrench to extend the
reach and create more torque. Route the belt on all the pulleys except for the
top right pulley (alternator?) while holding the belt in position with 1 hand,
loosen the tensioner with the wrench and pipe combo until you can create enough
slack in the belt to slip the belt on the last pulley. Remove your tools. Job done.
