Consumer Description

5.4 3V TRITON. WHEN THE TRUCK IS AT IDLE AT A NORMAL OPERATING TEMP, IT HAS A HORRIBLE KNOCKING NOISE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE ENGINE. FROM WHAT I AM READING THIS ENGINE HAS MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH THE CAM PHASERS AND TIMING COMPONENTS. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE TIMING CHAIN IS ABOUT TO FLY OUT OF THE ENGINE. I HOPE MY TRUCK DOESN'T GIVE OUT ON ME BECAUSE THIS IS MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION TO WORK AND CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED. I BOUGHT A FORD FOR RELIABILITY, BUT UNTIL THIS IS FIXED I FEEL IT'S UNRELIABLE. I HAVE USED A FULL SYN OIL AND THE RIGHT MOTORCRAFT 820S FILTER. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM AND FORD NEEDS TO PAY FOR THIS AND EVERYONE ELSE WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM OVER AND OVER! RECALL THIS FORD!
