| I purchased a ford f-150 in 2006. i am at my 100,000 maintenance and the spark plugs have to be changed. i spoke with a representative at the ford repair shop who told me that i would have to bring my truck in 24 hours early to soak the plugs because they will break in the motor and i will have to pay to have them removed. i followed there instructions on monday morning and took the truck to them. they called and informed me that they would have to take the head off my motor to remove the plugs at a considerable expense to me. it does not seem fair to me that if ford mechanics put ford plugs into there ford trucks and when there ford mechanics try to remove the ford plugs from the ford vehicle they break and i have to pay for the damages. *tr | |||

| Last year my brakes failed on my ford f-150 2006, fortunately i was close by the dealership i purchased the vehicle from. last month my daughter was driving my truck and the rear wheels locked up on the same truck, almost causing her to go over a bridge, the rail stopped her. i just want to know if any others have had this same experience. *tr | |||
