Your owner's manual contains a section for maintenance & safety checks. Depending on your vehicle's maintenance history, you may not have to change any fluids at this time. As a rule of thumb, every 30,000 miles you should change trans fluid/lube and cooling system flush every 2 years. Brake & power steering fluid need only be checked for minimum level and inspect system components if fluid levels are below minimum.

Does the 2007 hyundai accent GS hatchback have a "zero clearance" engine? if the timing belt breaks, will is cause severe damage to the engine?

No it will wipe out the valves.. usually all of the exhaust valves. Here is the interval for changing the timing belt on your Hyundai..
"Normal service replace every 60,000 miles or 48 months. Severe service replace every 40,000 miles or 48 months."

I have 65,000 miles on my 2007 hyundai accent hatchback, i was told i need to change the timing belt, will it hurt the car if i still drive it until i can afford to change the belt?

The risk you run is having the belt break which can cause more extensive internal engine damage. You should at least have it looked at which can be done by a trusted mechanic. When you go in don't mention you can only do it if "it is going to break tomorrow". You should consider the cost of both scenarios. This should be a $400 or less to complete. Let me know if you need anything further.

When should I change my timing belt on my 2007 hyundai accent gs hatchback? it has 63000 miles on it.

you wont need to change it until at least 100,000 miles. Typically that will last the life of the car. But alot of people, including myself, wait until it breaks to replace it. It is about $1000 to replace because the engine has to be partially disassembled.

I have a problem with my hyundai accent. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE TIMING BELT, TIMING CAIN HAS BROKEN. WHAT KIND OF DAMAGE COULD RESULT FROM THIS. THE ENGINE HAS A LOT OF MILES ON IT AND IT IS A 2002...

DAMAGE!!

The cylinders will misfire, I did it on a Honda Civic and lost a cylinder. Rigged it so the car would run on only 3 cylinders and I returned my lease not long after. The timing belt is disastrous if it isn't changed. It used to not be a belt, it was a timing CHAIN, and no one ever worried about it. Now we have a belt and when it goes, be somewhere else...

Bottom line, expensive if it has really gone, if it just needs a new timing belt, no big deal, usually 90000 miles I believe is when you would change it, but not sure on the Accent.

Good luck!!

When should timing belt be changed on hyundai accent, also what are indications that it is going bad

Hyundai recommends changing the timing belt every 60K miles. As far as symptoms go, a timing belt won't give a lot of warming prior to breaking but a few would be extremely rough idling and misfiring. You should know that a broken timing belt often will do damage to the engine. I hope you find this answers your question. All the best!
