Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This is my second ford truck in a year 1/2 and my forth motor i am experiencing a loud engine knock on cold start up. the knock gets louder and longer. ford has replaced lifters on my 2000, that did not take care of the knock. i have talked to different people that own the 5.4 engine and they expereince the same noise. i have found most people do not notice the noise because of the radio,as well as the bell noise when you first start the truck. i have also had a spark plug ejected from the cylinder head of my 1999. the ford dealer want to replace my 2000 5.4 engine with a new one . how much should a consumer take. here i go again with engine replacement in a new truck less than a year old. please help!!!! thank you!!!*ak
