problem #1

Jul 232012

Excursion 10-cyl

  • 107,000 miles
The approximate date above is the first time my Excursion blew out a spark plug while on a family trip in pa. Since then, it has blown 2 more in separate instances, the most recent being on the highway this past Sunday. The first incident I was towing and putting more strain on the engine, but the 2nd and 3rd incidents no towing was involved. I have read about and several mechanics have also told me the Ford Triton engines are known for this problem. It seems Ford should do the right thing and fix the problem.
