I sure hope so. I haven't hear of anyone get denied.
Dealer says if timing belt snaps on its own then its not covered, but if it snaps due to a faulty waterpump or tensioner...you're good.

I think you'd know for sure if it snapped, as for proof, dealer will have to diagnose.
Timing belts don't normally snap on their own. All 60K related problems with timing belts come from same sources...water pump and tensioner. If T-belt breakes before its time one of the above causes is probably to blame.
