Does the 2008 Dodge Caliber have a timing belt or chain?

The 2008 Dodge Caliber comes equipped with a timing chain. You might wonder what the difference might be between a timing belt and a timing chain. One of those differences is the longevity or replacement time of each. A timing belt will wear out a whole lot sooner than a timing chain. This is all due to the material they are made out of. Chains are known to last over 100,000 miles with proper care and maintenance. Another difference is the cost to replace, You will spend more money replacing timing belts along the life of Your car than with a timing chain. Consider Yourself lucky that You have a chain and not a belt.
