Consumer Description

I BOUGHT THIS USED 1999 FORD EXPEDITION 5.4L AND NOTICED A KNOCKING FIRST TIME AND SAW THAT THE #3 SPARK PLUG HAD COME UNSCREWED FROM INSIDE, THEN AS I REPLACED IT THE #4 CAME UNSCREWED, RE SCREWED IT BACK IN AND NOW THE OBD II CODES CAME UP THE SPARK PLUG WAS NO LONGER GOOD, AS I HAVE WANTED TO CHANGE THE SPARK PLUGS ALL NEW I AM UNABLE TO SCREW BACK IN A NEW SPARK PLUG IN #4 SPARK PLUG HOLE. I DIDN'T KNOW THAT SPARK PLUGS COULD UNSCREW ON THEIR OWN TILL NOW. I BELIEVE FORD IF THEY KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE THEY SHOULD REPAIR AT THEIR OWN COST FOR SOMETHING THEY KNEW WOULD HAPPEN. *TR
