Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“For the second time in 10 years a spark plug has blown out of the head on the engine the second time being today july 13th 2016 my concern besides the fact that the spark plugs are blowing out is the possibility of fire gas papers being ignited by the spark plug on top of the engine instead of in the engine the first time it happened I was driving on the interstate running 60 miles an hour the second time it happened was this morning on the entrance ramp getting on the interstate”

NHTSA complaint #10884671, filed 2016-07, 130,000 miles

“I just left home and have had prior problems. I was traveling about 35-40 MPH when boom tat tat tat tat tat tat. I lost control major control of my truck. I got it pulled off the road where I lifted the hood and sure enough a plug had been blown out of the block, had broken the coil pack and was laying on top of the motor. I have researched this and this is a very dangerous and common issue with the vehicle. I drive my nieces and nephews most days and do not need fuel to be ejected out causing an engine fire. Why has Ford not been held accountable for this?”
