94 V6 Lebaron - Timing Belt


At 112k miles with an original water pump and timing belt, any suggestions 
as whether they should be replaced soon or can I wait until one goes?  I'm 
guessing when the timing belt goes on an older Chrysler, it doesn't take out 
the engine as it can with (as an example) typical Honda vehicles where 
replacement is highly recommended around 110k miles.  When it goes, does the 
car simply stop running?  The car is now primarily used around town, perhaps 
up to 30 miles from home & mostly low mileage use primarily in the summer 
being a convertible.

Any comments?
