Consumer Description
WE WERE EXPERIENCING STALLS AND OVERALL SLUGGISHNESS AND TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO TOLD US WE NEEDED A TUNE UP. MY HUSBAND USUALLY DOES MINOR UPKEEP, THANKED THE MAN AND WAS ABOUT TO TAKE OUR TRUCK HOME WHEN THE MECHANIC INFORMED US THAT THE PLUGS WERE A BEAR TO CHANGE SINCE WE WOULD NEED A SPECIAL TOOL AND CHANCES ARE, THE PLUGS WOULD BREAK OFF. WE WERE SKEPTICAL BUT TRUSTED HIM TO DO THE JOB. IT COST SO MUCH AND TOOK SO LONG, WE BOUGHT A BEATER CAR IN THE INTERIM SO WE COULD GET TO WORK! AND IT COST OVER $1000...FOR A TUNE UP!!! IT LOOKS LIKE FORD KNOWS FULL WELL ABOUT THIS BUILT IN MONEY MAKER SINCE I SEE WE ARE IN GOOD COMPANY WITH MANY OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. SHAME ON FORD.
