The Timing Chain in Ford Escape cars works for the purpose of coordinating the revolutions of the camshaft and crankshaft hence creating an appropriate timing for the valves and piston operation. Located on the front side of the engine, the Timing Chain needs some kind of lubrication and is used mainly in cars with higher displacement. As far as the material is concerned, metal Timing Chains have replaced rubber timing belts since the 1990s through their durability and low replacement frequency. Timing chains in Ford Escape models do not wear out quickly, but problems developed from poor lubrication or failure of the tensioner and chain guides are common and drivers have reported a rattling sound from the front of the engine. In pushrod engine configurations, a short chain drive is implemented due to its efficiency in responding to torque changes and giving less noise as it is an optimum application of chain drives as compared to gear drives.
