Others can tell you what will happen if you have it break on ya....but I think that they are only supposed to last maybe 60K?
If you have the ability to change that belt....do it. You'll save yourself alot of grief!
They are not expensive...so if you can swap it out ASAP!

I don't really know. Best bet is to pop that question in the correct forum under the car that you drive & you'll get answers galore.
