FORD TAURUS

My car is a1998 Taurus Sho w/ approx. Mileage 104, 00 I am having trouble with the cam gear slippage and I want to know what is the best and least expensine way to fix the problem. My car is a 8 cylinder and has 4 cams: I tried to fix the problem by buying one new cam (the only one that was bad at the time) and now there is another one that is no good. HELP!

This is a manufacturer defect ford refuses to honor! All cams/ sprockets prone to this on v8. Weld sprocket to cam to avoid seperation.
