Just bought this car about a month ago off the used lot at a Ford dealership 59,000 miles now is at 63,000 and on every start up it makes a loud clicking noise took it back they told me they new right what it was because the f150s and the taurus shos with the 3. 5 eco boost I guess they have the problem more often then the Lincolns. The timing chain tensionor is losing its prime they told me and will be $3000 to fix sucks being I just paid $15,000 cash for it a month ago.
