The 2001 Dodge Dakota comes with engines that feature a timing chain instead of a belt. While both have their advantages and disadvantages, I believe that the chain is a superior choice for manufacturers to use. It's a fortunate feature for you to have. A belt might be more cost-effective to replace and operate more quietly compared to a chain, but it is prone to wearing out over time, necessitating replacement. On the other hand, a chain is highly durable and should not require any direct maintenance on your part for the lifespan of the vehicle. As long as it remains well lubricated by your engine oil, it is unlikely to cause you any issues.
