Description of the problem	This complaint is similar to nhtsa id number: 10543085. 08 mercury milan with 3. 0l 139,226 miles started missing and bucking while driving 60 mph on the highway. Took car to the local ford dealer who told me that coil on plug #4 (cop) was melted and had fried the vehicles pcm. The ford dealer quoted me $2,630. 70 for the repair. He told me this issue was common and known by ford. I can see how a cop can go bad after 139,226 miles, but i have a hard time with a cop melting and sending some sort spark back to the pcm and destroying a $700 part. Terrible engineering practice ford. In order for the cop to melt to a point such that it did, it would had to be close to starting an engine fire. That would be very bad indeed. This could have even cause a lose of control at highway speeds. You do the math the result of that. Not good. I also find it hard to believe that there has been no recall for this issue.
