Consumer Description

IT IS KNOWN THAT FORD HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAM PHASERS ON THEIR 3.5 ECO BOOST ENGINE. MINE WENT BAD AND WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY IN NOVEMBER 2019 AND APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MILES. NOW AT 70,000, THE CAM PHASERS ARE NEEDING REPLACED AGAIN. FORD IS REFUSING TO COVER THIS EXPENSE AS MY TRUCK IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY. IT IS ALSO KNOWN THEIR CAM PHASER FIX DOES NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE, THUS THE PROBLEM IS RECURRING. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND SHOULD BE COVERED IN FULL. THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE EFFECTING THE MAJORITY OF FORD 3.5 ECO BOOST ENGINES. WHY WILL FORD NOT OWN UP TO THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT?
