2001 Honda Accord engine complaints

The cam chain tensioner has failed twice and is scheduled to be worked on a third time. No accident (thankfully) has happened yet. The mechanic at the shop says it is very possible for the cam chain to 'jump time'. If this were to happen at say 55mph the rear tire of the motorcycle would probably lock up and therefore cause serious injury to the rider. I have spoken to numerous owners of this motorcycle and there seems to be several people with this same problem. Honda need to address this issue before someone is seriously injured because of an apparent design flaw.
This model honda makes a loud noise, coming from the underneath the car, when first started cold. The sound is more like a "thump" and is supspected (although I'm not certain) to be either the transmission or the exhaust system. I tried several different cars and the noise was consistent. The dealer tells me the noise is "normal" which is absurd. Honda has a recall pending on earlier model cars for an exhaust syustem problem--I'm wondering if this could be related. I am not an expert so do not know if this is a serious matter or not.
