Issue: Some 2020-2022 Explorer/Aviator vehicles equipped with a 3.0L EcoBoost engine may exhibit a ticking/tapping or rattle type noise from the top front cover area of the engine on initial start-up after a cold soak of 6 hours or more that may last for 2-5 seconds. This may be due to a worn variable cam timing (VCT) unit. To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure to replace the VCT units.
Action: Follow the Service Procedure to correct the condition on vehicles that meet all of the following criteria:
- 2020-2022 Explorer/Aviator
- 3.0L EcoBoost engine
- Customer symptom of ticking/tapping or rattle noise from the front cover area after a cold start
NOTE: Dealers should only order parts for customer vehicles that require repairs. Because of part constraints, dealers may experience situational short-term backorders on some parts. Customers should continue to drive vehicles while parts are on order.
