01M01 Mileage limit?

[TimNC]

Does anyone know the mileage limit for the 01M01 recall?

Thanks,

Tim

I want to think someone said it was 75k or so. I searched a little but didn't find much

 

[amessie]

75k I think. Call a couple dealer service depts. and one will probably help.

 

[JDraper]

75k is the stated mileage, but my dealer told me Ford "quietly" extended it to 100k if you ***** loud enough.

7 years or 100,000 miles from the original warranty start date.

Whats the 01m01?

 

[TPLYNCH]

Extended warranty program for timing chain cassettes (or is it the camshaft tensioners? - can never remember which was covered by this and which by 00M12) in SOHC engines built until 2000.

 

[Eneurb]

00M12 was the tensioner and the intake gaskets. 01M01 was for the chains and cassettes.

 

[TPLYNCH]

Thanks Eneurb! I'll try and drill it into memory so I don't forget. Unfortunately, seems harder to remember as I get older!

 

[Eneurb]

Lately I'm dealing with so many of these... seems like they all fail in waves.

I had 00M12 done at 65,000 miles. I'm now at 82,000 and they sound worse now than before they did them the first time.

 

[Eneurb]

You've probably got a problem with the cassettes. Those weren't touched on 00M12.

 

[The"X"]

And they are covered to 100K under 01M01?

 

[Eneurb]

Yep...

 

[Bill MacLeod]

00M12 was the tensioner and the intake gaskets. 01M01 was for the chains and cassettes.

Is the 01M01 a silent recall similar to the 00M12? What are the specific's?
(model years covered, milage limits, etc)

Thanks

01m01 was only for 97' and 98' oom12 was from 97' to 01'

 

[Eneurb]

Yep... you're right... 01M01 covers the front cam chain guide on 1997 and 1998 model years only... that is not to say that I haven't seen this problem on newer SOHC engines...

Well, my X has 77k miles on it and is making the Cold Start rattle (diesel-like) noise. I did make this complaint to my local dealer a few months back (when the seat bolts where recalled) and they said the noise was NOT loud enough and not to worry. Well, it rattles like a **** now!

Anyone have a hard copy showing that the 01M01 is covered until 100k miles. I would like to print it out and take it to my local dealer.

 

[kentford]

If the noise goes away you most likely need 00m12 recall but mileage limit is 72k on it also there it a time limit on both recalls to 7yr or 100k warr on 01m01 from start date you may be out.

This would be the tensioner going bad then correct ??
