The car won't run anymore.
Most cars that have timing belts, have a guard you can take off and visually inspect the timing belt to see if there is a problem.

1st off it won't run, or it will run very badly. a compression test may tell you because without the the timing belt some of the cars valves may not close due the the cam not turning. Take off the timing belt cover is also a good suggestion for a visual inspection.

Honestly, the car wouldn't run if the timing belt was broken. If your car is still running, your timing belt is not broken.

First. You would not be able to start your car. Secondly. If it was running and the belt broke, your motor would stop. It happened to me once.

If the belt fails, the engine will immediately shut down leaving you stranded.

Take the timing cover off and see if it is broke.

Your car shows up late everywhere it goes.
