More than likely the answer is YES, but. You fail to list what make, model, and engine vehicle you are talking about. Some engines don't even have a belt and instead have a chain that you do not change for the life of the engine. Assuming you do have an engine equipped with a cam belt, the replacement interval varies from manufacture to manufacture. It can be from 60,000 to 120,000 miles. Also some engines are what is commonly called interference engines. If the belt breaks on an interference engine then serious damage will occur. So without any information about your car, it is impossible to provide the correct answer. Read you owner's manual if you have one, or contact a dealer for the correct answer.
