Does the 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander have a timing belt or chain?

If You have a 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander in any configuration, You may be pleased to learn that You're working with a timing chain. While automotive experts are split on which is better, the timing chain is typically good for 250,000 to 300,000 miles -- the timing belt ought to be replaced every 60,000 to 100,000 because of wear and tear. However, there are some drawbacks to having a timing chain that You should know about. Even though You're likely set for the lifetime of Your vehicle (unless Your vehicle exceedS300,000 miles), a stretched or otherwise damaged timing chain can lead to quite the hefty repair bill. You may be looking at as much as $3,000 for a replacement, if that's needed. Be sure to keep Your engine properly lubricated to reduce the chance of takeng such a drastic hit to the wallet.
