2012 Civic- Timing Chain or Belt?

My 2012 Civic HF has 123k . I remember that most cars need their timing belts changed during this mileage. So does my 2012 Civic HF have a belt or chain?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

CHAIN

No replacement interval specified.
It is intended to last the life of the engine, and it probably will if oil services are not neglected

Thanks for providing this valuable info. It's one less maintenance item to worry about.

Enjoy your weekend
