Does the 2017 Hyundai Sonata use a timing belt or timing chain?

Question

Accepted Answer

The 2017 Hyundai Sonata comes with a timing chain as standard, which is more reliable than a timing belt. Belts are known to be fragile, requiring regular inspections and replacements. On the other hand, a timing chain in your vehicle should last the entire lifespan, estimated at 10 to 15 years or 150 to 175,000 miles. If the chain does wear out or break, Hyundai's warranty will cover it for up to 10 years or 100,000 miles. If you have to cover the replacement yourself, the parts alone will cost between $120 and $340.
