Yep. My '97 uses a dry belt and the change interval is something like 7 years or 100k. I’ve heard of Ford engines dying at 40k because the wet belt lost teeth, and it bent valves or punched holes in pistons or both.
If they’re gonna use a wet belt, they could at least put it in a non-interference engine so it just runs like crap or shuts off when it skips time.
But how else would they sell you a new car every 4 years?
