NHTSA Complaint #11267709 — 2011 FORD F-150

I HAVE BEEN HEARING RATTLING NOISE MOST EVERY TIME I START MY TRUCK FOR QUITE SOME TIME AND HAD SUSPECTED IT TO BE A TIMING CHAIN ISSUE AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ON LINE AND FINDING NUMEROUS OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. HOWEVER, WHEN I TOOK IT IN, THE REPAIR SHOP COULDN'T FIND AN ERROR CODE. UNTIL THIS PAST WEEK WHEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FINALLY APPEARED. NOW IT IS IN THE SHOP GETTING THE TIMING CHAINS REPLACED AT A PROPOSED COST OF $3,400! I, LIKE MANY MANY OTHERS, BELIEVE THIS IS A RECALL ISSUE THOUGH FORD SEEMS TO BE IGNORING IT. AFTER LOSING A TRANSMISSION EARLIER THIS YEAR DUE TO AN OFFICIAL RECALL ISSUE (OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR (OSS) FAILURE THAT RESULTED IN SUDDEN DOWNSHIFTING TO 1ST GEAR AT HIGH SPEEDS, WHICH COST ME OVER $7,000., I NOW FACE ANOTHER $3,400 IN COSTS DUE TO ANOTHER FLAWED COMPONENT IN MY 2011 FORD F150. LOOKS LIKE I WILL BE PAYING FOR MY TRUCK A COUPLE TIMES! FORD SHOULD STEP UP ON THIS! I'D GET RID OF THIS TRUCK IF I COULD.
