1 Engine Rattling And Whining Sounds problem

Failure Date: 11/01/2023

The vehicle engine has a rattle noise ever time its started. It concerns me that it may come apart while driving down the road. Upon checking there are other year models including the 2017 Ford f150 with the 3. 5l eco engine that has had recalls, but this vehicle doesnt.

2 Engine Rattling And Whining Sounds problem

Failure Date: 09/24/2020

Like many, many other owners of the 3. 5l v6 ecoboost f150 I'm experiencing a rattle noise when I start my vehicle. The noise only occurs when the vehicle starts, and only lasts for a few seconds. Online research leads me to believe it's related to the timing chain and timing chain components. At just 41k miles, I'm barely past the factory warranty period and will likely be forced to pay upwards of $4,000 for repairs. Here is a link to a youtube video that captures the same noise/issue I'm experiencing: https://youtu. Be/bvs16u_uxmw.
