It is possible. I hear a lot of tensioners go belly up, some that are
pretty new as well. I went through two of them on my Caravan....and six
belts before the dealer decided it was the tensioner the first time. Good
thing for warranty!

Subject: DML: Belt tensioner
When changing the serpentine belt is it normal for the tensioner to remain
in the "loose" position after turning the nut clockwise? I thought it was
under constant tension counter-clockwise to maintain proper tension on the
belt. Do I have a bad tensioner?
