The Ford Probe, particularly the models produced between 1989 and 1997, features an interference engine design. This means that if the timing belt fails, the engine's pistons can collide with the valves, potentially causing significant damage. It's important for owners to maintain the timing belt and replace it according to the manufacturer's recommended schedule to avoid such issues.
