Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING TRUCK ALL OF SUDDEN I HEARD A LOUD POP THEN LOUD SOUND COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. CALLED HUSBAND AND TOOK TRUCK BACK HOME (APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES). HUSBAND STARTED RESEARCHING PROBLEM AND FOUND ONLINE THAT SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE HAD SPARK PLUGS EXPLODE AND HEARD SIMILAR SOUND, THIS CAUSED HIM TO REMOVE WIRES AND INSPECT SPARK PLUGS. ONE OF THE SPARK PLUG HAD POPPED OUT AND NOW THE THREADS CAN'T BE USED. I BELIEVE THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND FORD SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAMAGE. *TR
