The timing belt should be replaced every 60-70K. You will hear both sides on the engine as to weather it is an interference engine or not.
Regardless, if the belt breaks you will be stranded and unless the non-interference group gives you a written guarentee, I would replace it.
If the belt broke on the freeway at 3000rpm, it is possible the belt could get jammed in the lower pulley, break it or crack the oil pump housing, also
how much would it cost to have it towed 30 miles?
