Timing belts are one of those things that can cause catastrophic problems and most people don’t even know if they have one or when it is due.A timing belt is recommended to be replaced at a certain time and mileage interval.It’s something you can’t see so you need to replace it when it is recommended from the dealer/owners manual. Not every car has one so next time you bring your car to E.S.P. have us check to let you know when yours is due and how much it will cost.
