Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 FORD F150 WITH THE 4.6L TRITON. DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON THE EVENING OF APRIL 27TH, IM AT A RED LIGHT. AS SOON AS IT TURNS GREEN I PUSH THE PEDAL TO GO. OUT COMES THE SPARK PLUG FROM THE BLOCK. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET. I CANNOT BELIEVE FORD HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL OVER THIS. NOT ONLY IS IT DANGEROUS, BUT ITS A SILLY PROBLEM TO HAVE. I HAVE HAD 5 ESTIMATES TO FIX THIS PROBLEM ALL OVER $2000. THERE'S NO WAY I CAN AFFORD THIS, I AM LOOKING FOR A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT TO JOIN. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN FORD AND WHEN I GET THIS FIXED I WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER FORD VEHICLE. *TR
