#10425741 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | | 100,000 miles
THE SPARK PLUGS IN THE 2004 F-150 PICKUP TRUCKS DID NOT GET ANIT-SEIZE COMPOUND WHEN INSTALLED IN FACTORIES. JUST GOOGLE 2004 F-150 SPARK PLUGS AND YOU WILL SEE MUCH MORE INFORMATION. NOW WHEN YOU REPLACE THE SPARK PLUGS, THEY HAVE A TENDENCY TO BREAK OFF. DEALERSHIP COST TO REPLACE THE SPARK PLUGS IS $350.00 PLUS $90.00 FOR EACH SPARK PLUG THAT IS BROKEN. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW THAT IS COSTING THE PUBLIC MILLIONS OF DOLLARS WORLD WIDE AND THE NTSB NEEDS TO STEP IN AND ORDER A RECALL TO PROTECT CONSUMERS AND STOP FORD FROM TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE CONSUMERS BECAUSE OF THEIR SPARK PLUG DESIGN FLAW.. *TT
