The 2010 Hyundai Accent has a timing belt that Hyundai suggests replacing every 75,000 miles due to normal wear and tear. If you are a careful driver and maintain your vehicles well, you could potentially stretch that to 100,000 miles before it becomes risky to drive. Unlike timing belts, timing chains typically do not require replacement unless something extreme happens. While swapping out timing belts is cheaper, it's important to weigh the pros and cons and avoid letting it deteriorate to a point where it might break. If it breaks while you're driving, there's a high risk of personal injury and a good chance that your engine could be ruined.
