Hyundai Accent Timing belt Problem
I'm driving my car this Morning and suddenly the engine just
Turned off and I tried to start my car and it wouldn't start. I just recently had the engine fixed with a new head gasket and the car was running fine up until then. Could this be a timing belt issue. Please let me know what's wrong with my ride.

Could be the fuel pump has failed or a timing belt issue

It turned out to be the timing belt and also one of the gears came loose but I must ask. How much could it possibly run me to get it fix?

Labor and Parts varies with location shop around for the lowest repair cost

So, the Cam Shaft came loose and the mechanic I took it to said
"That shouldn't happen"
I took my car to another mechanic before and they did the work that caused this...are they liable for the damage and should I pay another dime to them because and should they fix it for free.

It shouldn't if its assembled properly and torqued to specs-as for having them repair it again-No and for the free fix its not gonna happen-My opinion-Just don't go there anymore
