abg~ no kidding! At first I was like 'Did he say chain or belt 'cause I know this vehicle doesn't have a belt...' but he said chain. Then, I was like WTF this shouldn't be happening until *maybe* 100,000 miles!!! If I get back in the vehicle and it isn't right, I am having it towed right then and there to another place.

DPR~ See, this is what I don't get. The initial problem way back July 3, the piston/head whatever issue, Hubster and I were thinking if maybe this timing chain thing was connected? But, why didn't they find it then? If they fixed everything, like they say they do {but it never is} how could they not see that? And, if they are test driving it, how can they miss what is so obvious to me? And, I still can't believe when I turned around and brought it back with that noise they said it was 'normal'. If it were the timing chain and I went home, I wonder what would have happened to it? I have expressed to them over and over, I want my car safe, I do not want to break down anywhere any more!! I've been lucky to have been just 10 or so miles from my home.

LOL CM~ hey, if you have anything to add....

Thanks for the link to recalls. Of course, when I've asked them they say there are none. I'm so stressed over this. {she must be, you say, she keeps bringing this thread back to life!} This is the first new car we've ever owned. I swear, we never had problems like this with any old car we've purchased.
