Sounds to me like a fuel delivery problem. When throttle opened quickly it's starving for fuel. Open throttle slowly it's just using what it gets. Could be as little as the fuel filter is clogged and needs replaced. Could also be throttle body needs cleaned or only needs adjusted. It's definitely not electrical or firing system.
Check the manual for timing belts, they very from 60,000 to 100,000 Km. Timing chains run in oil and unless they become noisy will quite often last the life of the motor.
I have a 1.5 CRDi which uses the Mercedes engine and has a cam chain not a belt Check the owners manual the chain doesnt need replacing on any of the service intervals it only requires checking and retentioning
It has a timing belt, not a chain. Easy enough to check your owners manual. From memory, belt is to be replaced at about 100,000 miles or 160,000 km give or take.
The dealer recommends the timing belt be replaced at 60,000 miles if it is a rubber timing belt. Newer Sedona models have a metal chain timing belt that don't need to be replaced so soon.
