Consumer Description

I HAD A SPARK PLUG BLOW OUT OF THE HEAD ON MY TRUCK. IT IS A 1999 FORD F-150, WITH A 5.4 LITER TRITON V-8 ENGINE. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS, UNTIL THE MECHANIC AT MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAD SEEN IT BEFORE. ALSO AT AN EARLIER DATE THE SHEET METAL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR ABOUT THREE INCHES FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDOW CRACKED. ITS HAS CRACKED TWO MORE TIMES SINCE THEN. THEY (FORD MOTOR CO.) FINALLY PUT A NEW DOOR SKIN ON, BUT A MAN WHO I KNOW THAT RUNS A BODY SHOP SAID IT'S IN THE DOOR ITSELF AND THAT A SKIN WOULDN'T PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. I'M JUST VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE PRODUCTS THAT ARE ON THE MARKET ANYMORE THEY LACK QUALITY AND THEY DON'T LAST FOR NEAR AS LONG AS THEY SHOULD. *LA
