Description of the problem	I was driving in my 2001 ford f-150 truck on i-5 and the spark plug blew out of the v8 triton motor and there was a couple of fire balls that came out of the motor area which i was told was the gas vapor catching fire after the plug blew out of the motor lucky that i was able to stop right away and had water to put it out. This is going to kill someone and now i find out ford has known about this problem for a long time. I took the truck to ford and they told me it was not covered under my extended warranty and i would have to pay to replace the whole head piece that the spark plug goes into because they could not just put another plug into the motor, they know it's a problem and they are not covering it under the warranties. One of these trucks are going to catch fire and really hurt someone. *nm
