Description of the problem	2004 ford f150 with 5. 4 liter v-8. Engine problems, stalling when slowing down, hestitation, spark plugs ratcheted down that they break when removing. Engines that need to be replaced because of design. Ford aware of problem but techs at ford tell people its bad gas until it is too late. Check f150forum. Com and you will see how big the problem really is. I believe ford knew of this problem and is trying to bury it. My engine failed in a snowstorm going up hill. I was almost in a terrible accident with snow covered roads. Mechanics know its a flawed engine, and i want to know why the nhtsa didn't do anything about it. You are told it is bad gas and to keep changing your fuel filter. My truck would not go over 85 miles an hour since i bought it new. I was told it was bad gas. I kept changing the filter every six months as i was told. I think they knew this engine had a bad design and kept people in the dark hoping the engine would last until it was out of warranty.
