Timing Belt in ALL Japan cars

x007

I was told that the timing belt is in any of Japan cars. But it is timing chain in American (US) cars. This means timing belt need to be checked and replaced, while timing chain is not.

Thanks for help or reply

以前多数日本车是正时皮带，05年以后越来越多的用正时链。绝大多数美国车用正时链，少数用皮带，新车基本都是链。
