THE SPARK PLUGS ON MY TRUCK HAVE BLOWN OUT OF THE HEAD GASKET WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE SPENT OVER $1300 REPAIRING/REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG AND THREADS ON THE HEADS. I HAVE BEEN READING ON THE INTERNET WHERE OTHER FORD OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND IT APPEARS THAT NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE TO ME SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE TRUCK. THE FIRST TIME WAS IN FEBRUARY 2011, SECOND TIME WAS APRIL 2015.
