Quite possibly. Nissan's are bad for that. Not good news if you break the timing belt. That is why I tell people the following:

It is better to take a vehicle in and have the timing belt changed at the recommended replacement interval at your convenience as opposed to having to have it TOWED in at your extreme INCONVENIENCE, and at the risk of a much higher repair bill if the valves get bent.

Bent valves require the head(s) to be removed, valves replaced, head checked and trued if warped a bit. Trust me, don't go there, take it in a get the belt replaced and pat yourself on the back for having saved yourself one huge headache.

WRONG. it is NON interference. if the belt breaks, the motor will stop, but nothing hits. just put another belt on, line it up, and go. i would change out all the associated parts, tensioner, pulleys, water pump, etc. both engines in the millenia are NOT prone to breaking belts. i have seen engines with near 200k, and the belt looks new. i sure ain't changing ours until 200k or more.
