Same timing chain tensioner problem as the contributor from Carroltton TX. There's a big bang at the end of the cranking cycle when hot and when accelerating slightly like a slight grade. The engine keeps breaking down, seems like it missing, obvious on gas mileage bar - jumping. Appears to be same problem chain loose and jumping to throw off the cams and crank sensors. The dealers have never heard of it so I would like to get dealer contact info from TX above to follow up with them.

F-150 XL 5.0L

Timing chain clicks loudly when gas pedal is pushed or released. Took vehicle to dealer in July. They fixed the problem. The problem recurred in September and I took it in for service. This time they denied they fixed it in the first place, they told me that the sound was normal I don't buy it.
