peugoet claims that cambelt is recommended to be replaced at 72000 miles. belt failed at 65000. peugeot claimed that a recommendation is no guarantee and thus is not able to pay part of the bill even though they cannot tell when a cambelt fails. their reponse is well it is six yrs old so no help. thanks a lot peugeot. owners beware!!!!!
