About 2 years ago, I had the power steering pump rebuilt to stop some minor fluid loss.
Upon installation, the pulley of the pump was above the rotation plane (center line of the serpentine belt) by roughly 1/8". This caused the belt to wear out in a very short time; probably less than 3 days.
Once the the pulley was adjusted to the proper distance, all was well.
The twist in the belt caused by this misalignment, caused wear on the belt, which was clearly visible, especially on one side of the belt.
Hope this helps as well.
