"Excellent high speed commuting car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Had to replace the serpentine belt tensioner at 70000km.

Same tensioner is getting noisy again at 145000km and will need attention soon.

General comments?

Belt tensioner had a TSB on it. Dealer paid for part, I paid for labour. (It was 10000km out of warranty.

Rear suspension bottoms easily if there is anyone in back seat. Fine with two front passengers.

Car is very peppy and excellent on gas, averaging 47 canadian miles per gallon over 2 1/2 years and 145000km.

60000 on my 03 Corolla. Growling sound when put in gear. Was told it is the serpentine belt tensioner. Is there a TSB on this and will the dealer cover any of this? Thanks.
