Camshaft problems can be caused by several factors, including inadequate lubrication, which leads to increased wear and tear, and misalignment during installation. Additionally, using poor-quality or incorrect timing belts or chains can result in camshaft damage. Overheating due to engine issues can also warp or break the camshaft. Lastly, excessive engine modifications or high-performance upgrades without proper adjustments can stress the camshaft beyond its design limits.
