I bought the truck new in 1999, and never had a problem until 2005 when the first spark plug blow. It cost me $520.00 to have it towed and repaired. The second time the plug blow (2007), it cost me $620.00 to have it towed and repaired. Yesterday (06/02/2012), it cost me $740.00 to have it towed and repaired. Since I have owned the truck I have been extremely happy with the performance, I have only replaced the alternator, which IS great for most car & trucks. But! To have as much trouble with this engine and from what I have heard about the V10 & other ford truck engines ford should correct the problem & pay atleast half the cost! I love my truck, but if this continue (with the other seven plugs), I will have to look at gm. Come on ford.... Don't lose me!! *tr

5.4L ford triton engine spark plugs were changed at 84,000, at 110,128 spark plug on #7 cylinder came loose and blew out. fuel air mixture comes out the spark plug hole which IS dangerous(has been known to start engine fires). there IS a design defect in the aluminum heads not having enough threads to keep the spark plug tight. this IS an expensive repair that ford IS not paying for when it IS a poor design with the potential of it continuing to happen again on another cylinder. *Tr

While driving the vehicle I noticed a difference in the ride and handling characteristics which was not there on the previous day. It felt like an unresponsive steering and a vibration. When I arrived at my destination 50 miles from where I started and looked at all of my tires. Visually there was no apparent deformities or anything out of normal character. Later when I got in the vehicle and was driving home the same effects were present. About 10 miles later it suddenly got worse just before a bang and a sudden pull to the left as what happens when a tire blows out. I was able to control the steering enough to pull to the left side of the road and get out of the traveled portion of the highway. When I observed the driver's side front tire, it was flat and sections of the tread layer were missing as well as damage to the wheel well and vacuum hose for the 4 wheel drive control.the vacuum line was ripped from both ends of its connectors. Fortunately the brake line was still connected as it IS dressed to the vacuum line. After changing the tire, I looked at it and observed the following; large sections of the tread layer missing which had previously been on the tire, steel belts damaged and broken apart and pulled away from the inner layer, 2 slits going from near the bead on one side across the area where tread and belts had existed to the other bead area. the tire and rim were the removed and the spare put on to continue back home. After the spare was placed on the vehicle the problem noticed previously while driving did not exist anymore. *Tr

This has happened at least 3 times since I have owned this truck. Traveling down the interstate the engine for no reason and with out any warning just shut down leaving me with no braking power or any steering. This in turn almost caused a wreck involving several automobiles. From there I had it towed into my shop where they had determined that my cps had gone out. They replaced the item and everything was fine thus far. this was the first time for me this happened and there where two more times this occurred. I did not keep any of the old parts. Also on this complaint form there was no choice for international (ihc) so the equipment page IS messed up. *nm

At low speed, spark plug blew out of engine, causing loud exhaust noise and gasoline fumes were immediately smelled inside passenger compartment. If this were to happen at high speed with engine under load when immediate engine shutdown was not safe or possible, this condition would cause large amounts gasoline/air mixture to be exposed to hot exhaust components, causing fire hazard. If this occurred when power was critical (passing or turning in front of traffic), the loss of power could also cause an accident. If this occurred when driving on slick road conditions, it could contribute to loss of control of vehicle. This IS considered a "heavy duty" engine, but does not use a hardened threaded insert in the cylinder heads to strengthen the threads that the spark plugs screw into. Searching on the internet for (triton blew sparkplug) reveals that this IS not an isolated incident. Also, the manufacturers torque specification for the spark plugs IS quite low - probably due to the aluminum threads in the head. This could be a cause for the spark plugs loosening. *Ak

In a december 3, 2007 letter, ford advised nhtsa that it will conduct a safety recall to replace the cam position sensor (cps) in approximately 1.2 million subject vehicles to address reports of engine stalling.a new design cps with improved performance and durability will be installed as a remedy.owner notifications will begin in december 2007. The subject vehicles are durable, full-sized, medium duty trucks commonly used for commercial purposes, rescue/emergency response, and commercial or recreational towing.cps failure IS comparable to unexpectedly turning the key off since the signal it produces IS vital to the electronic engine control system.cps signal loss terminates fuel injection resulting in an engine stall.once stalled, the engine may restart right away, or may restart after a delay (typically 5 to 10 minutes), or may not restart at all.in addition to exposing the driver and other motorists to crash risk due to loss of motive power or vehicle disablement, engine stalling also effects the power assisted steering and braking. Through consumer interviews, odi determined that cps failures occurred without any form of warning, at any vehicle speed (50% at highway speeds), and under any driving condition, such as accelerating.consumers reported that about a third of the vehicles failed to restart, with another third reporting delayed restarting.half the vehicles that did restart experienced another stall on the same or a subsequent drive cycle (before cps replacement) re-exposing those consumers to the risks associated with a stalling event.in their voq reports, half of the odi complainants described difficulty controlling the vehicle due to lose of power assist systems, especially those who were towing at the time of the incident. The one alleged injury incident occurred in an intersection when a subject vehicle stalled while turning across oncoming lanes of traffic.although unsubstantiated, the complainant alleged an injury to a child occupant during odi's interview.the other crash allegations mostly involved low speed, loss of control incidents often caused by lack of power assist; no injuries are reported in these incidents, and property damage, if any, was minimal.consumers also reported other incidents with significant safety risks, such as disablement in a lane or on a shoulder of a high-speed roadway or interstate, or extended disablement in remote areas during severe weather conditions. The population above IS ford's estimate of the 1.4 million subject vehicles produced that are currently registered.the ford complaint and warranty counts noted above are current as of ford's last submission dated june 21, 2007; they do not include F-450, F-550, or econoline counts as these products were not formally within scope of the investigation when failure information was requested.warranty data analysis indicates that about half the claims involved a stall while driving event ( ford's assessment) and that poor cps durability was a longstanding concern.ford reported that the new cps design should meet or exceed their 10 year, 150K mile life expectancy design requirement.

The cam position sensor (cps) provides a critical signal to the subject vehicle (sv) engine management system, the loss of which results in an engine stall.during pe06-011, ford stated in their response to odi that it IS continuing to investigate allegations of cps related engine stall and further advised that an update will be provided upon completion of the investigation.ford data shows that 20% of the 716,000 svs are equipped with manual transmissions which are capable of back-driving the engine when a stall occurs; power assisted steering and braking are not lost during engine back-drive.ford data also indicates that back-drive occurs in automatic transmission vehicles above certain road speeds.the manufacturer reports noted reference 755 unique vehicles; 2 are duplicative of odi reports.in its review of customer and field reports, ford identified some 800 reports alleging one or more engine stalls potentially related to a cps failure in these 755 vehicles (ford?s ?a? Category reports).odi has not completed its review of these or other ford reports, nor has it confirmed this count.all but one of the 9 crash allegations appear to be minor in nature although odi IS still investigating these crash/injury allegations and whether or not they involve a cps failure.based on early assessment of the approximately 166,000 subject vehicle warranty claims ford paid, there appears to be variability in claim rates between certain sv production periods; an explanation for this has not been identified.ford reviewed a sample of the warranty claims and indicated that about half may involve a stall due to cps failure; odi has yet to confirm this assessment.the investigation IS therefore upgraded to engineering analysis ea06-012 so that odi can continue to investigate the scope, frequency and consequences of cps related engine stalling.
- Spark plug ejection from cylinder head

On september 6, 2005, odi received a petition requesting that the agency investigate allegations of engine spark plug ejection in certain model year 1997 through 2004 ford vehicles with triton V-8 and V-10 engines.odi received a total of 474 non-duplicative complaints on the subject vehicles where the complainant, or the dealer repairing the vehicle, reported that a spark plug detached from the cylinder and/or ejected from the engine.as of december 8, 2005, odi IS not aware of any allegations where the alleged defect resulted in a loss of vehicle control, a crash, an injury, or a fatality in any of the 10,319,810 subject vehicles.in addition, odi IS aware of only two incidents where the vehicle stalled without restart.information contained in the odi consumer complaints and obtained from 72 telephone interviews with complainants showed the following:(1) 99% of the complaints were on my 1997 to 2002 subject vehicles.(2) most the complainants reported hearing a loud pop while driving or upon starting up the vehicle followed by a loud, repetitive clicking or popping sound.(3) many of the complainants reported that the popping sound was accompanied by some loss of vehicle power; however, in 99% of the incidents reported, the vehicle did not stall.in the very few incidents where the vehicle did stall, most vehicles could be restarted.(4) only a small percentage of the complainants cited that they smelled gas or a slight burning smell when the incident occurred.(5) in all but a very few incidents, vehicle damage was limited to the engine.in one incident, the complaint reported that the fuel rail was damaged and replaced after one of the spark plugs ejected from the engine; however, the complainant reported that the damage did not result in any type of fuel leak or fire.in another incident, the only incident where a fire was alleged, the complainant reported that no fluid leak was observed, but that a fire resulted after the spark plug had ejected from the engine and he had restarted the vehicle and driven to another location.none of the complainants reported any damage to the vehicle hood.(6) only two complainants reported that they observed what appeared to be some drops of fuel coming from the cylinder where the spark plug had failed or on the spark plug itself; however, each of these complainants reported that there was no smoke or flames as a result of his incident.as the petitioner noted, and odi?s analysis showed, it IS possible for a spark plug to detach from the engine cylinder threads in the subject vehicles.however, odi?s analysis of 474 complaints describing such incidents found only a very few alleged any safety-related consequences.none of these showed any evidence of a serious safety consequence.given the large population and relatively long exposure time of the subject vehicles, the complaint analysis indicates that the risk to motor vehicle safety from the alleged defect IS very low.in view of the foregoing, it IS unlikely that nhtsa would issue an order for the notification and remedy of the alleged defect at the conclusion of the investigation requested in the petition.therefore, in view of the need to allocate and prioritize nhtsa?s limited resources to best accomplish the agency?s safety mission, the petition IS denied.
