JUNE 2007 WHILE DRIVING TO MEXICO FOR FAMILY VACATION, A SPARK PLUG BLEW OUT OF THE ENGINE IN GILA BEND ARIZONA WHERE THE TEMPERATURES WERE CLOSE TO 110 DEGREES. I HAD OUR DOG WITH US SO WE COULD NOT GO INTO ANY AIR CONDITIONED BUILDINGS DUE TO HAVING A DOG. MY 8 AND 10 YEAR OLD BOYS ALONG WITH MY ELDERLY MOTHER WERE FORCED TO SIT OUTSIDE AND WAIT FOR HOURS UNTIL HELP ARRIVED. IT BLEW WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. MAY 2015 SAME THING HAPPENED BUT THIS TIME WE WERE HEADING TO A FAMILY REUNION CAMPING TRIP AND HAD TO CANCEL AS OUR VEHICLE WOULD NOT GET US THERE. IT BLEW WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. 141000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. OCT 2015, THE THIRD SPARK PLUG BLEW WHILE MY SON WAS DRIVING 25MPH TO SCHOOL. HE HAD TO MISS SCHOOL THAT DAY AS HE HAD NO WAY TO GET THERE. 187000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THIS MUST BE A DEFECT THAT FORD CORP WILL NOT RECOGNIZE AS THEIR FAULT BUT IS COMMON THAT IT MUST BE! 197000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 FORD EXPEDITION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED TO FUNCTION.

THIS HAS BECOME A SERIOUS ISSUE. GRANTED WE BOUGHT THE EXPEDITION USED 3 YEARS AGO, BUT HAVING THE PLUGS BLOW OUT 4 TIMES (4 DIFFERENT PLUGS) AND NOW HAVING TO GET INTO THE HEAD TO FIX THE FIRST ONE THAT THE SHOP REPLACED WITH A HELIX-COIL....THE HELIX-COIL ACTUALLY SHATTERED! SENDING BITS OF IT INTO OUR ENGINE. THE SHOP WANTED 2300.00 TO FIX IT THIS TIME. SERIOUSLY? WITH ALL OF THE MILES ON IT NOW IT IS JUST BARELY THE APPRAISAL VALUE OF THE TRUCK'S WORTH. WE HAVE SEEN MANY REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO OUR TYPE OF ENGINE. WHEN YOU HAVE AN ALUMINUM HEAD AND ONLY 3 THREADS PER SPARK PLUG...IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. THANKFULLY WE HAVE NEVER CAUGHT FIRE DUE TO THE ISSUE AND HAVE BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET IT TO A SHOP. BUT AT THE SAME TIME WE HAVE HAD TO BORROW MONEY OR USE MONEY THAT NEEDED TO GO TO OTHER BILLS TO PAY FOR IT. FORD NEEDS TO FIX THIS! WHEN YOU PAY MORE FOR REPAIRS THEN THE ACTUAL VALUE OF THE VEHICLE....THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG! *TR
THIS IS THE 2ND TIME A SPARK PLUG BLEW, STRIPPING THE THREADS AGAIN. FORD REALLY NEEDS TO DO A RECALL. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GOOGLE FORDS BLOWN SPARK PLUG ITS THE FIRST THING THAT COMES UP. *TR

I STARTED MY TRUCK AND THERE WAS A VERY LOUD KNOCKING NOISE, MY HUSBAND LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD AND NOTICED I BLEW A SPARKPLUG RIGHT OUT OF THE ENGINE HEAD AND ALSO BROKE A COIL. *TT
APPROXIMATELY 15-20 MINUTES AFTER I GOT HOME FROM WORK MY 2001 FORD EXPEDITIONS CATCHES ON FIRE. WE, MY WIFE AND 3 KIDS HERE A LOUD PRESSURE SOUND GO OFF OUTSIDE. NOT SURE WHAT WAS GOING ON, WE RUN TO THE FRONT DOOR AND AS MY WIFE OPENS THE DOORS SHE SCREAMS THAT THE HOUSE IS ON FIRE. WE RUN BACK INSIDE, SHE CALLS 911 AND I TAKE KIDS SAFELY THROUGH THE BACK YARD. I GOT BACK INSIDE THE HOUSE AND OPEN THE GARAGE DOOR AND FIND THE ENTIRE ONE CAR GARAGE FILLED WITH SMOKE. LUCKILY, NEIGHBORS GRAB THE HOSE AND ONE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT OUT THE FIRE. THE FLAME REACHED THE GARAGE DOOR AND FRAME INCLUDING GUTTERS AND ROOF TILES. THANKFULLY TO THE NEIGHBORS THE ENTIRE HOUSE DID NOT CATCH ON FIRM SAID, THE LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT WHEN THEY ARRIVE AT THE SCENE. THE LOUD PRESSURE SOUND WE HEARD WAS THE DRIVER SIDE TIRE BLOW OUT. APPARENTLY, THE FIRE HAD STARTED SEVERAL MINUTES PRIOR TO US HEADING THE SOUND. CONSIDERING THE GARAGE WAS FILLED WITH THICK DARK SMOKE, IT MAY HAVE BEEN APPROXIMATELY 5-10 MINUTES SINCE THE FIRE STARTED. IT WAS THE SCARIEST MOMENT OUR LIVES. EVER SINCE OUR FAMILY HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME, ANY LITTLE SOUND WE HEAR OUTSIDE WE'RE ALERTED. *TR
I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEARD THIS LOUD CRASH AND BANG, AND WAS JERKED FORWARD. THOUGHT THE PICK UP TRUCK BEHIND ME REAR-ENDED ME. THAT DRIVER PULLED UP ASIDE OF ME AND TOLD ME YOU JUST DROPPED YOUR DRIVESHAFT. SINCE IT WAS DARK AND MY VEHICLE WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AT AN INTERSECTION I CALLED THE POLICE. WHEN THEY ARRIVED THEY TOLD ME WE CAN'T WAIT FOR YOUR TOW TRUCK DRIVER TO GET HERE, IT'S TO DANGEROUS, SO THEY CALLED ANOTHER TOWING COMPANY. WELL AFTER A LONG HASSLE AND THE 1ST TOW OF $150.00, I GOT MY VEHICLE TOWED TO MY HOUSE. AFTER MAKING SEVERAL PHONE CALLS I FINALLY GOT IT TOWED TO THE REPAIR SHOP ON 7/8/13 AND HAD TO PAY ANOTHER TOW OF $75.00. FINALLY GOT THE CALL ON 7/10/13 WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO MY ROTTED OUT EXPEDITION, ALL 4 CONTROL ARMS WHERE RUSTED OUT, 2 OF THEM ACTUALLY BENT AND BROKE, DAMAGING MY DRIVESHAFT. COSTING ME ANOTHER $559.14 FOR THE REPAIR. THAT'S ONLY FIXING THE 2 LOWER CONTROL ARMS. THEY HAVE TO FIND THE 2 UPPER AND REPLACE THEM. WHICH WILL BE AT LEAST ANOTHER $350.00 THIS ISN'T EVEN MENTIONING THE $1,000.00 I SPENT ON THE RUSTED OUT ROTTED RADIATOR BRACKETS NOT EVEN A YEAR AGO. I WAS TOLD AND EXPECT RUST BUT THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, AND ALSO TOLD FORD COULD HAVE COATED THIS PARTS OR MADE THEM STRONGER TO AVOID THESE SERIOUS RUST PROBLEMS. LUCKILY I ONLY GOT MUSCLE SPASMS IN MY BACK, SHOULDER, AND LOWER NECK FROM THIS. BUT I DON"T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE ANY MORE. THIS IS MY LAST FORD I WILL EVER PURCHASE AGAIN !!!!!!!!!! FORD = FOUND ON ROADSIDE DEAD !!! THIS STORY IS ALSO SHORTENED BUT THE TRUTH OF WHAT HAPPENED, I DIDN'T MENTION THE HEAT, THE ASTHMA ATTACK I HAD, AND THE HASSLE I WENT THROUGH WHILE ALL THIS OCCURRED. *TR

THE SPARK PLUG BLEW OUT OF THE MOTOR AND IT CAN NOT BE PUT BACK IN TO THE MOTOR. *TR
VEHICLE WAS HAVIN JERKIN ISSUES AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON, TOOK TO SHOP AND IT WAS ABOUT TO BLOW OUT THE SPARK PLUG, I WAS LUCKY AND CAUGHT IT AND GOT IT REPLACED BUT I HAVE DONE RESEARCH AND SEEN THAT MANY OTHERS HAVEN'T BEEN AND THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE. MY NEXT PROBLEM WAS ACCELERATION, THE GAS PEDAL ACCELERATED AND CAUSE ME TO CRASH INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE FLED THE SCENE, THERE WAS NO MAJOR INJURIES BUT 4 KIDS WERE IN THE VEHICLE AND ARE NOW SCARED TO EVEN RIDE WITH ME. MENTAL STRESS IS A MAJOR INJURY IN MY CONCERN CAUSE IT HURTS MY HEART TO KNOW MY OWN CHILDREN ARE SCARED THAT I WONT PROTECT THEM. MY THIRD PROBLEM IS THAT JUST YESTERDAY WE PARKED ON THE SIDE OF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND THE VEHICLE DIED AND WONT START, TALKED TO MECHANICS AND THEY SAY 01 FORDS HAVE THIS PROBLEM, WE NOW HAVE A BROKE DOWN VEHICLE AND NOT TOO SURE WHAT THE DEFECT HAS CAUSED MORE PROBLEMS TO BE WORSE. DUE TO THE DEFECT NOW THE STARTER SOLENOID IS OUT AND WE ARE UNSURE IF POSSIBLY EVEN THE FUEL PUMP. FORD KNOWS OF ALL THESE COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS AND HAS DONE NOTHING. JUST IN MY FAMILY I HAVE 2 OTHERS THAT HAVE THE SAME VEHICLE AND HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS, WHY IS IT THAT FORD IS NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THESE DEFECTS THAT CAN CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES??? *TR
AFTER DROPPING OFF MY CHILDREN AT DAYCARE I STOPPED AT THE STORE. WHEN I GOT BACK INTO MY CAR AND STARTED IT, IT MADE A LOUD POP LIKE SOMETHING HAD CAME OFF. SO I PROCEEDED TO TURN THE IGNITION ON AND THEN SMOKE CAME OUT OF THE TOP VENTS AND THE TRUCK BEGAN MAKING A LOUD POPPING NOISE AND THE ENGINE WAS SHAKING. I WAS SCARED AS HELL AND I THOUGHT THE TRUCK WAS ABOUT TO BLOW UP FROM THE SOUND OF IT. SO I CALMED DOWN AND DROVE TO THE AUTO SHOP THANKFULLY DOWN THE STREET. WELL MY SPARK PLUG HAD BLEW OUT THE HEAD AND THAT'S WHERE THE SMOKE WAS COMING FROM. I HAD JUST REPLACED THE #5 COIL AND PLUG WITH FORD ON FEBRUARY 23, 2012 AND THAT WAS $340.61. I AM BARELY MAKING IT FINANCIALLY AND TO READ ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS WITH THIS TRUCK AND FORD NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY OF THE SITUATION IS DISHEARTENING. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER OF THREE CHILDREN AND LIVE IN AN AREA WITH NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SO I AM NOW WITHOUT A VEHICLE AND NO WAY TO GET TO WORK AND SUPPORT MY FAMILY, NOW WHAT DO I DO? ITS AMAZING HOW THIS DEALERSHIP CAN SWOOP YOU IN AND TAKE YOUR MONEY AND REQUIRE YOU TO MAKE YOUR PAYMENTS ON TIME BUT WON'T PROVIDE YOU WITH A SAFE VEHICLE. I NOW HAVE TO GET A CAB TO PICK MY KIDS UP FROM DAYCARE BECAUSE I CAN'T DRIVE MY TRUCK, NOT TO MENTION WHEN YOU GET INSIDE IT SMELLS LIKE PURE SMOKE WHICH MAKES IT SCARY TO EVEN WANNA TURN THE THING ON. VERY FRUSTRATED AND DISAPPOINTED.

PLUS IT WOULD COST ME OVER $2000.00 TO REPAIR. I HAVE SEEN LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM I HAVE A 5.4 L ENGINE AND MY VEHICLE RUNS STRONG I WOULD OF HOPED FORD WOULD OF STOOD BEHIND THIS BUT I WAS WRONG I WILL DEFINITELY CONSIDER BUYING A DIFFERENT BRAND LIKE A MAZDA OR TOYOTA. *TR
