Ford Expedition 2001 Complaint

Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

BRYANS ROAD, MD

Consumer Complaint:
WHILE DRIVING MY 2001 FORD EXPEDITION AT 50 MPH I HEARD A POP AND THIS WAS FOLLOWED BY ERRATIC HANDLING AND POOR IDLE. AN INSPECTION LATER REVEALED A SPARK PLUG WHICH EJECTED OUT OF THE CYLINDER HEAD AND STRIPPED THE THREADS WITH IT. THE COST TO REPAIR THE HEAD WAS $600.00. INITIALLY I WAS TOLD I WOULD NEED A $2700 HEAD REPLACEMENT. THE DEALER ADVISED ME THAT THERE STILL CAN BE NO GUARANTEE THAT THE REPAIRED PLUG WON'T COME OUT OR ANY OF THE OTHER PLUGS. RESEARCH OF THIS PROBLEM SHOWS MANY EXPEDITION AND F-150 OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.*AK
