Should the dealer do this Kuga's timing belt?

Filed under: servicing

The question

I am buying a 161 Ford Kuga 2.0-litre Titanium; should the dealership do the timing belt before I get it? It has 94,000km on the clock. Any advice would be great, thanks.

Hi Kieran,

I'm afraid there's no onus on a dealer to do a timing belt before selling a car. 

Saying that, your Kuga doesn't need a timing belt change until it has done 200,000 kilometres or it is 10 years old, so it's not due yet anyway.
