Our family was riding in our 2001 Ford E-350 Super Duty 15-passenger van powered by Ford 5.4L V8 255 hp on I-80 eastbound near milesburg, pa this past Saturday afternoon (July 7,2007) and one of the spark plugs blew out of the cylinder head. I am awaiting repairs even now. I have noticed our government's reluctance to issue a recall on what appears to be a recurring problem for '97-04 Ford engines with the aluminum heads. The repairs are very expensive! please help! thanks, david lipsy
