Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On august 2, 2006, while traveling in michigan, a spark plug suddenly blew out of my 1999 ford expedition. there was no prior warning or indication of any problem. i had to have it towed to bay city, mi, where a ford dealer told me that it would cost approx. $3500 to repair the problem. he said it was a recurring problem with ford expeditions. my car had approximately 120000 miles on it at the time. i kept the spark plug and coil attachment, and it doesn't look like the grooves on the plug gave way or were stripped. *nm
