When should the timing belt be replaced on a 1999 Chrysler Concorde 3.2 engine?

The recommended replacement interval for the timing belt on a 1999 Chrysler Concorde with a 3.2L engine is every 100,000 miles or 6 years, whichever comes first. However, it's crucial to consult your owner's manual. Chrysler's recommendations might have varied slightly depending on specific sub-models and regional conditions. Ignoring this maintenance can lead to catastrophic engine damage.

Even if the mileage is below 100,000 miles, if the car is 6 years old or older, it's a good idea to have the timing belt inspected by a mechanic. They can assess its condition and determine if replacement is necessary. The cost of replacing a broken timing belt far outweighs the cost of preventative maintenance.
