Consumer Description

2005 FORD F-150 5.4 LITER ENGINE; ALL SERVICE WORK WAS PERFORMED AT THE RECOMMENDED SERVICE INTERVALS ON THIS VEHICLE. AT 102,000 MILES, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE SPARK PLUGS REPLACED. (FORD RECOMMENDED 100,000 MILE TUNE-UP) THE FIRST THREE SPARK PLUGS ATTEMPTED TO BE REMOVED BY THREE DIFFERENT TECHNICIANS BROKE OFF EVEN WHEN FOLLOWING THE FORD TSB PROCEEDURE. THIS TUNE UP WILL COST ME ALMOST $2,000 DUE TO THE DEFECTIVE SPARK PLUG DESIGN. FORD WILL NOT HELP WITH THE REPAIR. *TR
