Easy fix for Squeaky / Squealing Belt - Toyota Yaris Forums

If you have a serpentine belt and that kind of tensioner that comes with it (spring loaded) the tensioneer can fail (like at 80k miles)

If you dont have it, it cant break!

Actually, it failed earlier than that. But Toyota replaced it under warranty. 100K miles after that, the replacement didn't fail.
