Consumer Description

OUR 2000 FORD EXCURSION KEEPS HAVING THE SPARK PLUGS SHOOT OUT OF THEIR HOLES DAMAGING THE HEAD AND INDIVIDUAL SPARK PLUG COILS (3 REPLACED SO FAR). WE HAVE SPENT NEARLY $500 REPAIRING THE HEADS/COILS SO FAR. I EXPECT ADDITIONAL PLUGS TO FAIL ON THE V-10 ENGINE. I AM AFRAID OF CONTINUED HEAD AND COIL DAMAGE AND EVEN FUEL LINE DAMAGE LEADING TO AN ENGINE FIRE AND TOTAL VEHICLE LOSS. I WANT FORD TO RECALL THE VEHICLE AND REPLACE THE HEADS WITH NEW HEADS WITH A BETTER SPARK PLUG HOLE DESIGN. *JB
