If the timing belt were to slip or break, the synchronization between the crankshaft and camshaft would be disrupted. This can lead to serious engine damage, commonly referred to as “valve interference.” In such cases, the engine's pistons may collide with the valves, resulting in bent valves, damaged pistons, or even a complete engine failure. To mitigate these risks, it is vital for vehicle owners to understand the maintenance needs associated with the timing belt.

A failing fan belt can lead to a number of issues. One of the most common signs of a worn-out fan belt is a squeaking or squealing noise when starting the engine or while driving.
