What happens when timing belt breaks on a 2000 Dodge Stratus 2.0?

Most of the time the pistons continue to travel up and down a few strokes but the valves are stuck in their last position. So, any valve that was open when the timing belt broke has a bent valve stem. If this is the case, you will probably find it cheaper to get an engine from a salvage yard, change the timing belt before you install it and go from there. Your engine is going to have to have a head work and probably some lower work as well as a new timing belt.
