I assume it's a V6. The OEM belts for these engines are very robust and were designed for a 10 year life. The 'official' replacement schedule is 90K miles or 6 years, which ever comes first. Here is my opinion. If waiting till January is the preferred option, don't panic and do it then. At a mere 6000 miles per annum, the engine isn't exactly stressed.
