About Timing Belt Replacement

BulletIcon
Critical to the operation of your vehicle, the timing belt synchs the operations of the camshaft and the crankshaft so that the valves operate efficiently and safely. Older cars may have a timing chain, similar to a chain on a motorcycle, with a life cycle of around 60,000 miles. Newer models use timing belts made of polyurethane and Kevlar for long life and durability. They can go as long as 100,000 miles although it’s always a good idea to change it before then. Belt failure can cause extensive damage to the valves, pistons and other internal parts of the engine. The cost of changing the timing belt is a bargain when you consider the cost to replace the entire engine. Start thinking about changing the timing belt once you cross the 90,000-mile threshold. Check your owner’s manual for details.

Ram Dealership Repair Options

After the purchase or lease of your Ram truck, it’s advisable to have repairs done at your local Ram, Dodge, Chrysler or Jeep (CDJR) dealer who is the first point of repair service for the proper maintenance and care of your vehicle. These facilities have up-to-date information on your Ram, in addition to the latest service bulletins and recall notices, as issued by the manufacturer.

In the case of a leased Ram truck, many of these contracts including those from Chrysler Capital, Ram’s financial partner, will require the use of Mopar original equipment parts in the process of making the vehicle whole again. To avoid repair and servicing surprises, examine the parameters of your insurance policy. In some cases, insurance companies will only pay to a certain point, leaving you responsible for any additional overages.

Some FCA vehicles using special materials such as advanced ultra-high-strength and bake-hardened steel, aluminum, magnesium and carbon fiber which require special handling during vehicle repairs. In those instances, a member of the FCA Certified Collision Care Network may be the only option for getting it repaired properly.

Training

FCA-approved Ram repair and service mechanics receive factory training on the latest techniques and are required to take certification tests. Technical service bulletins are regularly issued to update the 1400+ FCA Certified Network shops on the latest information to provide a successful repair to your Ram pickup or utility truck.

Loan car policy

If your Ram 1500, 2500 or 3500 brand vehicle requires warranty repairs within the 3-year/36,000-mile warranty period, alternate transportation may be available through your dealer. Consult with your service advisor for more information. If your Ram truck is in for collision repair, the use of a loaner may be covered by an insurance policy rider.
