Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED, MY EXPEDITION MADE A LOUD POP AND THEN STRANGE KNOCKING NOISE. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION I NOTICED I HAD BLOWN OUT A SPARK PLUG AND MY COIL PACK WAS BLOWN APART AS WELL. WHEN I CALLED A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP (THOMAS FORD, STILLWATER OK) THE MAN LAUGHED AND SAID "NO IT IS NOT A RECALL, BUT ABSOLUTELY SHOULD BE AS THIS IS A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE IN THE TRITON MOTOR." I ASK THAT YOU RE-LOOK BACK INTO THIS "COMMON" PROBLEM AS THIS IS A TERRIBLE THING TO OVERLOOK. *TR
