If You have a non-interfearence engine, the worst that could happen is that your car stps going at an inconveninent time, but there are some volvo motors (I think the B230 is one, but I haven't got my Haynes in front of me), on which the valves and the pistons will impact if motor gets out of synch with itself. If you have one of these ingines, then a $20 timing belt breaking can cost you a lot in rebuild work.
