"yes 2002 Kia Rio engine is interference engine.you need to replace timing belt at 60000 miles or maybe a bit longer. mine broke at 97000 and bent 12 valves got lucky head was not damaged still $1200 to repair!!!!!"

I highly recommend following your maintenance schedule when it comes to timing belts TO THE LETTER. As the previous author noted, what would have been a $400 job turned into a $1200 repair.
