Me husband and i own a 2005 ford expedition xlt (v8 5.4l). The truck has cut off on us several times in the last to weeks, without warning! It has even cut off on us on the highway. We were traveling 55mph. We have four small children that travel with us constantly. I consider this to be a life threatening defect. My husband took the truck to a mechanic, thinking oh we just need a tune up. Two of the spark plugs…

I took it to a ford dealer the next day to get it inspected. They…

My 1999 ford expedition blew a sparkplug. The cost to fix is ridiculous compared to the worth of my suv now. I checked online and this apparently happens all the time to this engine yet there has been no recall. What is up with this? This is dangerous and costly. If brakes for japanese carmakers are recalled why not plug problems which can create engine fires and strand people far from home? Please help? *tr

2003 ford expedition spark plug blew out of head at 85k miles. Ford dealership acknowledged that it sees 2 spark plug blow outs a month and ford is aware of the problem in 2003 expeditions. Repaired with a ford fix - heliacoil or liner installed into head for damaged spark plug. For true fix, ford needs to replace the head and spark plugs to ensure that other spark plugs don't come unthreaded as mileage increases.…
