2000 FORD MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE Engine And Engine Coolingenginegasoline Problems

MARCH 30, 2007 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I HAVE A 2000 FORD MUSTANG GT-WHILE DRIVING HOME TODAY 3/30/07 IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, I HEARD A LOAD POP, AND THEN LOST ENGINE FUNCTION. I WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS NOT KILLED. WHEN I CHECKED MY ENGINE, IT HAD BLOWN THE SPARK PLUG-I THOUGHT THIS WAS AN ISOLATED PROBLEM UNTIL I CHECKED ON THE INTERNET, AND READ ALL OF THE INCIDENTS WITH FORDS "SPITTING" SPARK PLUGS. I THINK IT IS HORRIFIC THAT FORD WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT AND DO THE RIGHT THING-"RECALL"-HOW MANY WILL HAVE TO DIE BEFORE FORD ACKNOWLEDGES THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THEIR AUTOMOBILES BLOWING SPARK PLUGS. I WILL SAY THAT AS THE OWNER OF MULTIPLE FORD MUSTANGS INCLUDING 65, 66, 67, 70, 98, 2000 (STILL HAVE THEM ALL). I WILL THINK TWICE BEFORE BUYING ANOTHER FORD IF THEY DO NOT TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION AND ACKNOWLEDGE THERE...
