Just heard of a timing chain failure yesterday. Car was being tracked. Timing chain snapped. Vendor cancelled an order with us since the owner now has to worry about repairing his vehicle.

How often are these timing chains failing, and is there a solution?

Don't want to go into too many details. Let's just say the car was mildly-modified.
