SOURCE: when to replace timing chain
Normally you don't have to replace the timing chain unless it develops excessive slack in it. They aren't like timing belts that are recommended to be changed at different intervals depending upon the manufacturer. If your milage isn't excessive then you should be fine. If the car has high miles you can have it checked to see if it has too much slack in it. Hope that helps.

Here is the scoop
Went to another web page, says the 2.2 and the 2.4 are non-interference systems.
So when the chain jumps, the car will stop, but you will not damge the valves.
So drive it till it stops, then change it, it's a big job that you may never have to do.
