Yes. Mine slipped at 6500 miles even with new tensioner, spring, etc
These cars had a problem with the teeth on the original timing belt coming off and the belt not breaking. if this has happened most likely you have bent valves too. These are a interference engine which means if they slip on the timing the valves hit the pistons. Chevrolet should have recalled these cars and put a better timing belt in them. Instead they did a goodwill service where they paid for a new timing belt if the owner paid to install it.

If everything was fine before the new belt was fitted then the most obvious answer is that the timing belt has been fitted incorrectly and the timing is wrong.
The benefit to replacing the timing belt on a 99 Toyota RAV4 is that it prevents catastrophic failure and it keeps timing accurate. As the belt wears, it may slip or break which can be very expensive to repair.
it won't slip, it will break if anything, and yes it will bend the valves
is it a belt or chain driven ... nissans timing works off of oil pressure the timing tention works of of the oil pressure if the pump is weak or if the tentioer was not tighend right it would couse your timing chane .not to have constant presssure and might let it slip . i have a 97 that has 260 000 miles and it is doing that i finaly jumped time, but it wasnt enogh to mess any thing up
The altima uses a timing chain, not a belt.
Worn belt or belt that has stretched to the point the tensioner cannot keep the proper tension. The tensioner can also be defective. Replace the belt and the tensioner.
which belt's? all of the accessory belts like power steering, a/c, and aternator are pretty easy. you just have to loosen the tensioning bolt enough to slip the belt off. then slip a new one on and retighten the tensioner. however, if you're talking about the timing belt, that's a much bigger process.
the only timing marks are on the timing belt pulleys for installation of new timing belt other than that timing is not adjustable.
The timing may be off. If the timing belt is old then the gears can slip and cause backfiring, or the engine to not run at all.
Some vehicles have a timing belt, some have a timing chain and some have timing gears.
Timing belt. It is a larger version of the 3.5L V6.
