Description of the problem	Dealer said the camshaft adjuster with chain tensioner needs to be replace at 65,000 miles. Also the high pressure pump needs to be replace too. This after spending over $773. 06 hundred dollars on engine analysis. I decline the service because it will cost me $5,324. 98 to get the job done. Could this be a safety recall because the dealer said one of this days it might just stop on the middle of nowhere. Now i am driving this vehicle with the check engine light on because of the problem i mention above.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
