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"

Gas gauge reading is not accurate. Fuel amount fluctuates. Checked by dealer, no problem found. Gauge still inaccurate. Dealer informed me that the dash fuel gauge is not accurate and is there primarily for decoration.
