I wouldn't say that it is a problem more than it is in any engine with a timing belt. Generally they last well over 100,000 miles and even when replaced at that point they show very little wear. But the engines are fairly reliable in all other aspects, so when an engine won't start all of a sudden after running normally for years it happens to often be the belt.
