2007 Sonata timing belt?

    After our last Toyota Camry I swore I would never buy another car with a
    timing belt. Having had major problems with our local Toyota service
    department I have narrowed my next car selections down to 2 vehicles,
    the Honda Accord and the Hyundai Sonata. To get power seats with the
    Accord the moonroof is included. Well, I definitely don't want the
    moonroof so that leaves me with the Sonata which I like very much.
    Unfortunately the salesman now tells me the Sonata has a timing belt,
    not a chain. I went through 4 of those suckers with Toyota.

    Your opinions please or other vehicle suggestions. Thanks.

    The salesman is wrong. It is a chain. You don't have to believe me, just
    go ask in the service department. And ask them to show you the service
    manual.

  5. Find a new salesman. This one does not know his product. It has a chain
    these days. Like you, I'd not buy a car with a belt. I keep them too many
    miles to have that expense a couple of times.
