Consumer Description

DT: ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2005 HAD A SPARK PLUG BLOW OUT OF THE CYLINDER HEAD OF THE VEHICLE. THIS WAS THE SPARK PLUG ON PASSENGER'S SIDE, NEAREST TO FIREWALL. THIS WAS THE THIRD COIL THAT THE CONSUMER HAD, BUT THIS IT WAS THE FIRST TIME THE SPARK PLUG CAME OUT. CONTACTED THE DEALER, THEY TOWED IT. THERE WAS NO FOREWARNING. AT 65 MPH, THE CONSUMER HEARD A POP AND THOUGHT IT WAS THE TIRE, BUT IT KEPT POPPING UNTIL VEHICLE STOPPED. THE CONSUMER EXITED THE VEHICLE AND DISCOVERED IT WAS NOT THE TIRE. RAISED THE HOOD AND COULD SEE IT FLAPPING. NO LIGHTS IN DASHBOARD CAME ON AND GAUGES DID NOT MOVE. *AK *JB
