Timing belt broke when running will it brake valves?
Usually yes, mine just went while driving on a motorway and it took out four valves. I spoke to the recovery guy and he said he has never seen a case where it did not do damage to the valves. This combined with other possible damage caused can potentially write off a car depending on its value. To be honest I cannot imagine a scenario in which a timing belt would break when the engine is not running, real question is how hard is it running.
What is the price for a Dodge neon timing belt replacement?
depends on if the timing belt broke or not.... if the car was running and it broke there is a good chance you will need to do heads valves etc. on the dodge neons there is a zero tollerance clearance. About 1500.00 to 2000.00 if it broke while running About 150.00 to 200.00 if you replace it before it breaks
