Car has a little over 100K miles so is it time change the timing belt?
Maintenance say check belt but no mention of replacement. Will engine be
damaged when timing belt breaks?

I'm thinking you should be on your second belt and planning on the
third, according to the years, No?

Did you mean to say 19_9_8 ??

Change the belt, you're overdue and it will be too expensive _when_ it
breaks, as you said.
