“There is a customer complaint recall on Ford explorer sports that Ford customer relations said information was sent out on and people I talk to have not received this information. I am currently having this problem with my vehicle and when taking to the dealership I am told yes there was and Ford knows that the tensioner chain is bad and they have a quiet recall on them and mine was covered but because of the miles on mine it is not and Ford will do nothing about it. They know this is a problem and they should fix it and in all vehicles not just a complaint. …”
