 Description of the problemFord - spark plug defect. While driving on the interst a spark plug popped out of its socket and broke the spark plug coil. I was in th middle of heavy traffic an ws very scared because i could not initially pull over due to the amount of trucks on the higway. I was boxed in. After i was able to pull over to the side of the road i opened the hood an found a spark plug stuck to a piece of plastic melted to it due to the hea). I also oundthe spark plug coil, with the spring hanging out of the rubber insulator, spaking against another piec of plastic.*ak i feel the is an extreme danger because: 1. I could have caused a major accident on the freeway. 2. The spark plug coil could have shocked meor even started something on fire. After researchingthe problem on the internet, i see that more and more incidents exactly like e are happening every day. Ford refuses to admit there is a problemeven though they changed the design in 2004 and theprobem doesn't exit with spark plugs anymore. What needs to be done to get this problem resolved. Does omeone have to die?
