Consumer Description

SPARKPLUG BLOW OUT OF ITS SOCKET, TEARING THE THREATS OFF, THIS SEAMS TO BE A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM WITH ALOT OF FORD'S ENGINE, I DO HAVE A MAINTAINENCE PROGRAM OFF CHECKING ALL OF THE STANDARD POINT ON MY EXPLORER, MY MECHANIC CHECKS LIQUIDS, OILS GREASE, FILTERS, TIRES, SPARKPLUGS ETC. I BELIEVE THAT AFTER SO MANY COMPLAINS AND A WELL DOCUMENTED MANUFACTURES DEFECT A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUE, BECAUSE I INVESTIGATED THIS ISSUE AND IT VERY POSSIBLE TO OCCUR AGAIN, THIS REPAIR COST ME 2,154.97 CANADIAN DOLLARS, AND IT COULD COST ME THE SAME IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. *TR
