Hyundai uses a timing chain in the 2016 Accent. Because of this, You'll likely not need to do much of anything in the way of maintenance for it, beyond checking the engine oil level and other lubricants. Now, that doesn't mean some components won't eventually need replacing, like the water pump and maybe the chain tensioner eventually. Some signs that Your timing chain actually has started to fail are going to be some pretty horrendous rattling sounds coming from underneath Your engine hood, as well as something less dRamatic, like metal shavings in Your oil.
