Consumer Description

THE FACTORY IGNITION COILS BEGAN TO SHORT AGAINST THE INTERIOR WALLS OF THE ENGINE HEAD ABOVE THE SPARK PLUGS. AS THEY SHORTED IT BURN THE POWER CONTROL MODULE (PCM). WITH NO PCM MY SPARK PLUGS FAILED TO LIGHT, CAUSING MY ENGINE BECOME FLOODED WITH GASOLINE, WHICH WASHED AWAY THE LUBRICANTS ON MY CYLINDER AND HEADS CAUSING ALL OF MY CYLINDERS AND HEADS TO BECOME DAMAGED. AS THIS HAPPENED BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER MY ENGINE SHUT OFF. CAUSING ME TO LOSE POWER STEERING AND ALL OF THE OTHER ELECTRICAL FUNCTIONING COMPONENTS. LUCKILY I WAS ON A FAIRLY QUIET ROAD AND AT SOMEWHAT LOW SPEEDS, BUT FOR THE MANY OTHERS THAT HAVE OR COULD EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN OR BE AS LUCKY. 2006 FORD FUSION 3.0L V6. *TR
