Expedition 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 69,000 miles
We bought a 1999 Ford Expedition eddie bauer almost a year ago. The day we bought it we noticed a burnt oil smell. The dealer replaced the head gasket. Now almost a year later, we blew a spark plug and need a new head. Dealer says that the head gasket and head are not related"??" I was told that this car has these problems because of aluminum heads..I want the dealer to replace it, I am willing to pay more for a new one, but I am not willing to repair it and take a loss! help!!
