ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
I OWN A FORD F-250 WITH A 5.4 MOTOR. THIS TRUCK BLEW A SPARK PLUG OUT OF THE MOTOR ON 4-15 -2008 AND IT BLEW A DIFFERENT SPARK PLUG OUT OF THE MOTOR ON 5-13-2009. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL THIS TRUCK AND OTHER VEHICLES AND CORRECT THIS DEFECT. I WILL BE TALKING WITH A LAWYER IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS IN HOPES OF GETTING MY TRUCK REPAIRED AND TO RECOVER THE MONEY I HAVE ALREADY SPENT FOR REPAIRS.I F SAFERCAR.GOV WILL CHECK WITH PARTS HOUSES SUCH AS AUTO ZONE AND REPAIR SHOPS YOU WILL FIND THIS IS A VERY BIG PROBLEM, A VERY VERY BIG PROBLEM. I PULL A HORSE TRAILER AND IF THIS SPARK WOULD HAVE BLEW OUT WHILE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC ME OR MY DAUGHTER COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED !!!!!! *TR WALTER GLENN JOHNSON BYRAM,MS

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY
VEHICLE HAS A 29 GALLON FUEL TANK. WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE READS EMPTY AND I FUEL UP THE VEHICLE IT WILL ONLY TAKE 22 GALLONS OF FUEL. THE DEALER TELLS ME THE VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE A RESERVE, BUT A 7 GALLON RESERVE DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. I PREVIOUSLY OWNED A 1999 F-250 WITH THE SAME SPECS AND WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE READ EMPTY IT WOULD TAKE UP TO 29 GALLONS, I HAD THE 2002 VEHICLE AT THE DEALER 3 TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM, THEY ALSO TELL ME THE GAUGE IS WORKING PROPERLY. *JB
