Consumer Description

Complete failure of the timing chain components. Vehicle completely shut down while driving on the interstate, almost causing me to get rear ended. The problem has been diagnosed and confirmed by an independent service center. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealership. They stated this is a very common issue and "they're not sure why Ford had done a recall on the timing chain and timing chain components." No warning lights ever came on, the only symptom that occurred was the timing chain rattle on cold starts.
