When it blew up the head became stripped and we had to have a plug installed into the defective head and replace the coil. I have since found out this is a very common problem with Ford Excursions.

14 Car Stall problem of the 2000 Ford Excursion

Failure Date: 06/07/2008

Blown spark plug from 2000 Ford Excursion v-10 triton engine. 3rd time. First time on new years eve 2007 while driving through town of houghton michigan. Was able to insert new plug as old plug was completely blown out from under hood and could not find. Had to replace plug coil as mounting bracket was broken and coil jacket and spring destroyed as well. Second time same plug, this time no threads left to seat spark plug. Thread insert installed by local high performance engine garage. They viewed problem as poor design and manufacturing practices by Ford motor company. Third time just happened earlier today while on us-41 traveling through l'anse michigan ironically just a few miles after passing the old Ford alberta michigan lumber mill where the sideboards for the Ford woodsies were milled. Contacted friends at the high performance engine shop to have a new thread insert placed into the cylinder. The nhsta and the federal government needs to reopen this case and take action and get Ford to replace the faulty heads on all triton engines. This could cause a serious fire or accident. But most of all it is a very expensive repair and the Ford dealerships will not do anything other than replace the aluminum head at the owners expense of $4,000 plus dollars. 3 incidents of this kind are ridiculous.

16 Car Stall problem of the 2005 Ford Excursion

Failure Date: 04/09/2008

Spark plug blown out of head of vehicle, brought to dealer and was told it was not covered by warranty because the plug had loosened ,these plugs were factory installed therefore it should be considered defective workmanship and should be covered under warranty. This problem is a common occurrence with Ford motors as I have been made aware. I have also reviewed many articles relating to this several of which are quite disturbing mainly the fact that there have been instances of spark plugs ejecting and rupturing the fuel line which sits directly above the spark plug causing a fire and engulfing the vehicles in flames. Being as I have a large family we have a Ford Excursion and we have children strapped in car seats I am quite concerned that this is even a remote possibility and I feel that this should be a grave concern for your organization as well. Bottom line is Ford has an engineering problem with these motors and needs to be held accountable and correct them.
