Does the 2017 Hyundai Tucson have a timing belt or chain?

With the 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.4L or 2.0L engine, there is a timing chain fitted. In all engine versions froM2000 to 2007, the car used the timing belt and made the transition to the timing chain after that year. The reason for the modification is that the timing chain is intended to last the life of the car and the timing belt would need to be replaced every 60,000 miles. The timing chain does not, however, come without problems, although it has a lower chance of needing a substitute. The timing chain may become twisted and stretched from the engine heat over time in some cases and will need to be replaced. You should take it to a mechanic or dealership if anything You notice that is out of the ordinary.
