Default OT - Decision Process: Replace Timing Belt Now or Wait?

The vehicle info was *purposely* left out because the question, as per

But the decision process takes a different path depending on whether a
failed belt causes damage or just leaves him stranded, which depends
on the vehicle. I think leaving out the vehicle was based on
underestimating the complexity of the question rather than wanting a
complex decision tree as an answer.
