Default Question about maintenance for 2008 Charger

This is probably a stupid question.

I have a 2008 Charger with a 2.7L, V6. The maintenance schedule says to replace the Accessory Drive Belt at 120,000 miles. Is that different from the Timing Belt? If so, I'm not clear on when to change the timing belt.

The accessory drive belt is the serpentine belt that drives your Alternator, A/C, Power Steering etc...The accessories that are mounted onto your engine.

The 2.7 liter engine uses chains for timing not belts.

The system consists of a primary drive chain and a secondary chain drive.

These do not require changing as part of a service interval.
