No that's internet ignorance.. its the BELT not the tensioner which is the problem ,you really must not get your safety critical info from the internet ...

Aux belt ONLY every 54000 miles , It is the MILES which are important rather than time ...
The Aux belt tensioner gets replaced at 108000 miles next time it's due together with cam belt, and the next aux belt .. ...
