The 2008 Dodge Caliber comes with a timing chain, which sets it apart from cars with a timing belt. Timing chains generally have a longer lifespan compared to timing belts, lasting over 100,000 miles with proper maintenance. One key difference is the material they are made from, with chains being more durable. Additionally, replacing a timing belt can be more costly over the lifetime of the vehicle than replacing a timing chain. It is fortunate to have a timing chain rather than a timing belt in your car.
