Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2005 FORD F-150 (4.6L V8) AND I RECENTLY HAD A SPARK PLUG BLOW OUT OF THE ENGINE, FOR THE SECOND TIME. THE FIRST TIME IT COST ME $556.50 TO REPAIR IT. THIS TIME IT HAPPENED IN A DIFFERENT CYLINDER. THIS TIME I HAD MY 2YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WITH ME AND WAS STRANDED ALONG INTERSTATE 70 FOR OVER AN HOUR. I DIDN'T REPORT IT THE FIRST TIME, BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. NOW AFTER SOME RESEARCH, I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS HAPPENING AROUND THE NATION. I AM NOT SURE WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL. NOT ONLY CAN THIS BE A FIRE HAZARD, BUT IN MY CASE, MY DAUGHTER AND I WERE STRANDED ALONG SIDE A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY. *TR
