The timing belt in your engine controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves. Lake In The Hills drivers need to replace it on a schedule to avoid failure.
Timing belts are very difficult to get to, requiring quite a bit of labor to access. Timing belt replacement is one of the more expensive maintenance services, but the cost at Tuffy Lake In The Hills to correct an engine damaged by a broken timing belt is much, much more.
