Consumer Description

WHILE I WAS DRIVING 30 MILES PER HOUR, MY BACK PASSENGER SIDE SPARK PLUG SHOT OUT OF MY HEAD, I HAVE A WARRANTY BUT THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT SURE IF THEY WILL COVER THIS INCIDENT. I HAVE NOTICED ALL OVER THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM, WHAT IS WRONG WITH FORD, HOW CAN THEY MAKE SOMETHING DEFECTIVE THAT IS SO COSTLY TO THEIR CUSTOMERS AND NOT RECALL THE ITEM? THE DEALERSHIP IS QUOTING ME $3800.00 TO PUT A NEW HEAD ON THE 1999 FORD F150 WHICH I THOUGHT WAS A DEPENDABLE VEHICLE. I HAVE DRIVEN FORDS ALL OF MY LIFE AND I DOUBT I WILL EVER BUY ANOTHER ONE, NOT TO GET THIS KIND OF TREATMENT.*AK
