Tom's right. I had a belt fail at 100,000 miles, it was improperly installed, I was told. It lasted only 37,000 miles, but when it failed the engine shut down immediately w/o any interference at all. However, I don't agree about not bothering to replace it. The book says replace at 60,000 miles, and I go w/the book.
