Consumer Description

THIS IS THE SECOND ISSUE THAT I HAVE HAD WITH MY FORD 5.4 LITER TRUCK. THE FIRST WAS A FAMOUS FIRESTONE TIRE BLOWOUT IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC THAT COULD HAVE EASILY KILLED ME AND SEVERAL OTHERS, AS I WAS TRAVELING 60 MPH ACROSS A BRIDGE. IT CAUSED ABOUT $3500 DAMAGE TO THE BED OF MY TRUCK. TODAY, A SPARK PLUG BLEW OUT. THE THREADS ARE GONE. I AM THE ONLY OWNER OF THE TRUCK, SO I KNOW NOTHING HAS BEEN DAMAGED BEFORE. I HAVE SMELLED FUEL FOR THE PAST TWO DAYS AND COULDN'T COME UP WITH AN ANSWER. I HAD SCHEDULED TO TAKE IT IN TO THE SHOP TOMORROW, BUT IT DIDN'T MAKE IT THAT LONG. THERE SEEMS TO BE MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. WILL FORD STAND UP TO THE PLATE AND REMEDY THE ISSUE, PLEASE? IN CALLING THE DEALER TODAY, THEIR COMMENT WAS "WOW, WE'VE NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE." THAT REALLY INFURIATES ME, AS I KNOW THEY HAVE DEALT WITH MANY OF THEM. JUST DO A SIMPLE SEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND YOU WILL FIND HUNDREDS. I AM YET TO GET IT FIXED, AS I HOPE THE DEALER WILL DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I'M NOT PREPARED TO SPEND THOUSANDS ON WHAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN AN ISSUE. *TR
