Consumer Description

THIS IS THE SECOND SPARK PLUG IN LESS THAN 4 MONTHS THAT HAS BLOWN OUT OF THE CYLINDER HEAD OUT OF OUR 2001FORD EXPEDITION. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM AS IT IS OCCURRING TO MANY PEOPLE. IT IS DEFINITELY A FLAW IN DESIGN AND IS COSTING PEOPLE TOO MUCH MONEY TO CONTINUE TO FIX. FORD HAS BEEN NO HELP. AS THE LAST TIME, WHILE DRIVING THE SPARK PLUG JUST BLOWS THROUGH THE CYLINDER HEAD ON A VEHICLE THAT HAS BEEN IMPECCABLY MAINTAINED.*AK
