At 60,000km, on a 2018 car, how come you needed to change the engine belts and bearings? That's a very un-Toyota like thing to have to do. If it were a Golf or VAG car I'd not be surprised at bearings going at 2 years, mind you!  Good pics

Is the mileage correct, ??. That’s very unusual, did you buy from a Toyota dealership??

Dust covers damaged & torn may have been a major factor, what was the service history like, that should have been spotted in the service bay. Replaced belt seems to be a preventative measure.

You mean ball joints, correct? These on the pictures aren’t the bearings and the bearings don’t have dust covers.
Still strange so early change but again it depends where and how the car been used. Belt change at 5 years upwards it’s ok as the rubber ages and starts  to crack. What make ball joints have you used?

ball joints.

you are right.

When i take the belt out, The belt was like a wood, rubber after 5 years change it self.

The car was service in toyota first 3 years.

the car now drive like a dream, better then it was new.
