MORNING OF JULY 23,2015, I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 25 MPR SPEED WHEN NUMBER THREE SPARK PLUG BLOW OUT OF THE CYLANDERHEAD ON MY F-150 TRITON V8. TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL MACHANIC SHOP WALTON'S. THREE HOURS LATER, WALTON'S HAD TO REPLACE AND RESLEEVE NUMBER THREE CYLANDERHEAD AND REPLACED ELECTRICAL SPARKPLUG WIRE, PLUS REPLACED ALL EIGHT SPARK PLUGS. ALL AT A COST OF $543.00. NOT ONLY THIS HAPPENED TO ME BUT WALTON'S STATED THAT I WAS THE 10TH PERSON THIS WEEK THIS HAS HAPPENED TOO. I PRESENTED THE PART TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE WE BOUGHT THE TRUCK (HALL'S FORD MOTOR COMPANY) BRAND NEW IN 2006 AND PAID CASH TO THE SUM OF $30,000.00. I ASKED THEM IF THEY KNOW OF THIS PROBLEM WITH TRITON V8'S. THEY STATED THEY DID BUT NO KNOW RECALLS AND THEY TOO HAD SEVERAL REPAIRS COME IN FOR THE SAME THING IN THE PASS WEEK. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY WAS AWARE OF THIS MATTER BUT NEVER LET THERE CUSTOMERS KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM YET BECAUSE THERE WAS NO RECALL ON FILE TO LET THEM KNOW. THIS THING WHERE THE SPARK PLUGS COME FLYING OUT OF AN ENGINE CAN BE VERY HAZARDS, IT COULD CAUSE A CRASH OR EVEN GIVE A PERSON A HEART ATTACK BECAUSE THE TRUCK SOUNDS LIKE WORLD WAR III GOING OFF UNDER THE HOOD AND IT MAY EVEN START A FIRE. THIS MATTER NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF BY FORD.

FORD'S IWE SOLENOID HAS A TENDENCY TO MALFUNCTION DUE TO A POOR DESIGN. TSB 06-8-15 WAS ISSUED TO REPLACE THESE SOLENOIDS, BUT ONLY IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND ONLY IF IT WAS GIVING A PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE WAS IN STORAGE FOR 5 YEARS AND AFTER IT WAS BROUGHT OUT AND TO NY, THE WATER LEAKED ON THE SOLENOID DUE TO THE INADEQUATE DESIGN, CAUSING THE IWE'S TO MALFUNCTION. I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT EXACTLY IT DID BUT DRIVING THE CAR DOWN THE ROAD, IT CAUSED ME TO FEEL LIKE I WAS DRIVING OVER SMALL SPEED BUMPS WITH THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE TIRE. I'M AFRAID THAT IF THIS FAILED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED IT COULD CAUSE THE IWE TO ENGAGE AND POSSIBLY LOCK UP ONE OF THE FRONT TIRES. *TR

VEHICLE STARTED LOSING POWER AND UNABLE TO RUN CORRECTLY. TOOK TO GARAGE AND FUEL PUMP DRIVE MODULE WAS RUSTED WITH CIRCUITS BEING EXPOSED TO THE SALT AND MOISTURE ELEMENTS WHERE THERE WAS A LARGE HOLE IN BACK OF UNIT. NEW ONE WAS INSTALLED WITH SPACERS TO HELP PREVENT SALT AND MOISTURE FROM COLLECTING WHERE BACK OF MODULE MOUNTS ONTO AXLE BRACKET. VEHICLE RAN BETTER BUT ALSO HAD TO INSTALL NEW COIL DUE TO A CYLINDER MISSING. RUNS OK WITH WORK THAT WAS PERFORMED. MODULE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED AGAINST THE BRACKET SO SALT AND MOISTURE COULD COLLECT AND RUST IT SO BADLY AND CAUSE IT TO FAIL. FORD SHOULD PAY FOR THIS REPAIR DUE TO THE WAY IN WHICH THE MODULE WAS INSTALLED SO IT WOULD RUST SO BADLY. *TR

WENT TO START TRUCK AND ENGINE WOULD CRANK BUT WOULD NOT FIRE. I TRIED THE STARTING FLUID TEST TO SEE IF IT WAS AN IGNITION PROBLEM OR FUEL PROBLEM. GAVE A LITTLE SHOT OF STARTING FLUID INTO THE INTAKE AND THEN TRIED TO START. MOTOR ACTED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO START BUT NEVER STARTED BEINGS I DIDN'T GIVE IT ENOUGH STARTING FLUID TO START BECAUSE I'M NOT A FAN OF USING IT. WITH THAT I ELIMINATED THE IGNITION HAD TO BE FUEL. I GOT ON THE INTERNET AND SEARCHED NO START PROBLEM FOR 2006 F-150 AND FOUND A YOU TUBE VIDEO OF THE FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE RUSTING OUT. WENT OUT AND DROPPED SPARE TIRE AND TOOK THE CONTROL MODULE OFF THE CROSS MEMBER AND NOTICED THE HOLE CORRODED THROUGH THE HOUSING JUST LIKE THE VIDEO. I GOT THE UPGRADED PART FROM A FORD DEALER FOR $163 AND INSTALLED. RUNS FINE NOW. MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT IS FORD KNOWS THERE'S A PROBLEM SINCE THE HAVE CAME OUT WITH AN UPGRADED CONTROL MODULE SO WHY ISN'T THIS A RECALL? I LIVE IN A STATE THAT TEMPERATURES IN THE WINTER MONTHS CAN BE BELOW 0 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT AND DRIVE AN HOUR ONE WAY TO WORK, THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED WHEN I WAS ON THE ROAD IN EXTREME COLD, COULD OF HAD MY TWO CHILDREN WITH ME BROKE DOWN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND COLD OUT. LUCKILY IT HAPPENED AT HOME BUT STILL IT WAS 4 DEGREES OUT AND LAYING UNDER MY TRUCK TAKING THE MODULE OFF WAS NOT VERY PLEASANT. THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THAT FORD NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT. *TR

Official recalls
4Feb 23, 2011
FORD IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2004-2006 F-150 PICK UP TRUCKS AS WELL AS CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006 LINCOLN MARK LT VEHICLES. IF THE CLOCKSPRING JUMPER WIRE COMES IN CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER SIDE FRONTAL AIR BAG LOWER HORN PLATE, THE WIRE INSULATION MAY BECOME CHAFED, CREATING A POTENTIAL FOR A SHORT CIRCUIT. IF THIS OCCURS THE AIR BAG WARNING LAMP MAY ILLUMINATE INDICATING THAT SERVICE IS REQUIRED.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THE DRIVER SIDE FRONTAL AIR BAG COULD INADVERTENTLY DEPLOY INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY OR LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL IF OCCURRING WHILE IN MOTION.
Remedy: FORD WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND INSTRUCT THEM TO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO A FORD OR LINCOLN/MERCURY DEALER TO HAVE A NEW CLOCKSPRING JUMPER WIRE INSTALLED THAT INCORPORATES A PROTECTIVE MESH COVER. REPAIRS WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THIS SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON SOME VEHICLES IN MARCH 2011. THE RECALL CAMPAIGN ON THE EXPANDED POPULATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON OR ABOUT MAY 9, 2011. OWNERS MAY CONTACT THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP CENTER AT 1-866-436-7332.
May 7, 2008
FORD IS RECALLING 605,684 MY 2005-2006 F-150 AND LINCOLN MARK LT VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 5.4L 3-VALVE ENGINES. THE BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM SUPPLY HOSE ATTACHED TO THE INTAKE MANIFOLD FITTING MAY SWELL OVER TIME AND LOSE RETENTION FORCE. THIS CONDITION COULD ALLOW THE HOSE TO BECOME DETACHED FROM THE FITTING DURING AN INTAKE MANIFOLD BACKFIRE. SHOULD THE HOSE DETACH FROM THE INTAKE MANIFOLD, SEVERAL BRAKE APPLICATIONS WITH POWER ASSIST WILL BE AVAILABLE BEFORE THE VACUUM RESERVE IS DEPLETED.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: ONCE THE BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM RESERVE IS DEPLETED, THE DRIVER WILL HAVE FOUNDATION BRAKE FUNCTION, BUT WITH INCREASED BRAKE PEDAL EFFORT. REDUCED VEHICLE BRAKING COULD LEAD TO A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE A RUBBER HOSE ON THE BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM SUPPLY TUBE ASSEMBLY. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JUNE 27, 2008. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FORD AT 1-800-392-3673.
Feb 6, 2006
CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH EITHER THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD (FMVSS) NO. 105, 'HYDRAULIC AND ELECTRIC BRAKE SYSTEMS' OR FMVSS NO. 135, 'PASSENGER CAR BRAKE SYSTEMS.' THESE VEHICLES WERE BUILT WITH A SOFTWARE ERROR IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS ERROR COULD PREVENT THE ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) WARNING LIGHT FROM ILLUMINATING IF THE ABS MODULE EVER BECAME INOPERATIVE.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL RECALIBRATE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IN THESE VEHICLES. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 27, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FORD AT 1-800-392-3673.
Nov 9, 2005
ON CERTAIN TRUCKS, PASSENGER CARS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR MAY HAVE BEEN PRODUCED WITHOUT GREASE BEING APPLIED TO THE OUTPUT SHAFT GEAR.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: AFTER A PERIOD OF CONTINUOUS USE ON THE HIGH SPEED SETTING, LACK OF GREASE ON THE OUTPUT SHAFT GEAR MAY CAUSE THE GEAR TO DISTORT OR FRACTURE DURING OPERATION RESULTING IN A LOSS OF WIPER FUNCTION. INOPERATIVE WIPERS UNDER INCLEMENT WEATHER CONDITIONS COULD CAUSE A CRASH DUE TO IMPAIRED VISIBILITY.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE WIPER MOTOR FOR THE PRESENCE OF GREASE AND GREASE THE WIPER MOTOR GEARS IF NECESSARY. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 22, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FORD AT 1-800-392-3673 OR LINCOLN/MERCURY AT 1-800-521-4140.

ODI opened this investigation based on reports of inadvertent airbag deployment.Data provided by Ford indicated that the airbag clockspring jumper wire, which is situated inside the steering wheel assembly, was installed in a manner that would allow it to rub (abrade) against a sharp metal edge on the nearby horn plate.Because the horn plate is electrically grounded the abrasion of an airbag wire on the sharp edge could cause a short circuit condition.As a result the airbag light may illuminate and/or the airbag may inadvertently deploy.Inadvertent deployments are most likely to occur during the airbag system's self-diagnostic test that initiates when the ignition switch is turned on.Ford modified the vehicle design in late January 2006 adding a protective tape over the sharp metal edge of the horn plate.Ford made additional design changes on MY 2007 vehicles to the horn plate, the clockspring jumper, and the connector layouts to further address this issue.ODI identified 318 deployment incidents with 121 alleged injury reports from subject vehicles.All but one of the incident and injury reports occurred in vehicles built before the January 2006 modification.In addition, there was one incident and alleged injury reported in the MY 2006 Mark LT vehicles that share the same design. In letters dated February 21 and April 11, 2011, Ford announced a recall of all of the approximately 1.3 million MY 2004-2006 F-150 vehicles built prior to January 24, 2006, the date the initial vehicle modification was made.In addition, approximately 14,000 MY 2006 Mark LT vehicles built prior to January 24, 2006 will also be recalled.Vehicles built after that date, which contain the modification, are not within the recall scope.Accordingly the investigation is closed.
