I own a 1999 Ford expedition and have now had 2 spark plugs eject out of the cylinder head due destroying the coils of each spark plug in the process. This is a widely know issue with 1997-2000 Fords, but Ford is doing nothing about it. I call the dealer in carlsbad California and was quoted almost $3000 to fix the problem. There is no recall on this failure and Ford is doing nothing about it. I found a company named timesert that sells a "Ford triton spark plug steel inser kit" and paid over $400 for the kit and did the repairs myself. . . . When a company like timesert makes a kit specifically to fix this problem with Fords it's hard not to believe there is a serious problem here that Ford needs to correct.
