What happens when a Honda timing belt breaks?
This is because Hondas have interference engines. If a timing belt breaks in an interference engine, open valves may come into contact with one another. The engine is slowing down to a stop and the camshaft stops rotating, but the pistons are still moving up and down within the cylinders.
Who is responsible for timing belt failure on CRV?
As others have mentioned, your CRV has an “interference” engine. The odds that no damage was done when the timing belt failed are slim to none. If the dealer replaced the belt and it subsequently failed, the dealer is responsible for all repairs associated with this failure. Good luck. andrew_j July 5, 2016, 6:18pm #8
