Should I trade in my Yaris?
Hi, I have a 04 Yaris, but need to get the timing chain done on it. There is 80,000 miles on it. Once this is fixed, can it still give me trouble as the damage has already been done, or should I think about trading it in.
Our answer:
Hi Debbie,
Without knowing what caused the chain to fail, we can't answer for sure, but in most situations, we'd expect a new chain to last a considerable length of time, so wouldn't think there's a particular need to trade the car in as quick as you can.
