Pretty sure both engines that go into the Altima (2.5l and 3.5l) have timing chains. While chains are much less prone to problems; they still need to be checked once in a while as they can stretch over time.
When should I replace timing chain

Dealer has told me that my timing chain fell off. Not snapped. Is it worth it to get it fixed? They are telling me I need a new engine. Might be time for a new car?
