Anyone have this issue with the cam phasers/ or chain tensioners failing? 75,000 miles never and issue till 3 days ago. No noises just a check engine light and has Ford covered the repairs?

Timing chain stretch is a well known issue, enough for Ford to issue TSBs and updated parts.  Not sure about tensioners though.  As far as warranty, there is no extended warranty that I know of, so if you have ESP warranty remaining, then it will be covered.

You should go through the TSBs/recalls listed on this site:

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
