So quick update - the timing jumped time and did some damage to drivers side head, valves, camshaft. Indy shop who has done a lot 5.0 said this is the first 3.0 he has seen do this. The block is the same as the 5.0 with the back two cylinders plugged. So I am forced into a pretty good size bill...
I read a couple spots where it should not even be looked at until 150K miles and thought the tensioner and chain problem was pre-2014. Supposed to be a non-interference motor also meaning the valves should not contact and bend. I was able to call the dealer and while they won't do much to help...
