Looking to buy this vehicle used. Is the timing belt/chain an issue? If so what damage could be cased if belt breaks, Cost to replace, cost if belt breaks while driving?

Thanks

your vehicle uses 3 timing chains which do not have a service interval set from the manufacturer. the chains are supposed to last the life of the engine. if you do choose to have them replaced it will cost around $1,000 in labor and around $200 in parts.
