| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 2000 fleetwood pace arrow motorhome with ford triton v10 enginge: at 32,000 blew a spark plug out of the head. ford dealer quoted me $6,000 to replace with new/improved head. i can replace the whole engine for less than $3,000. this is incredible and something needs to be done. even the tow truck driver that towed me to the dealer said his ford truck with a v10 recently blew a plug as well. i own four motorhomes all with the ford triton v10 engine. the company i used to work for had six motorhomes with the ford triton v10 and had four spark plug blowout incidences while i was working there. something needs to be done about this. it is unthinkable that a company can get away with peddling crap to customers and then charging them $6,000 to fix this problem!!! contact oscar at don kott ford in carson, ca to confirm my estimate. do something, do something do something! thank you very much. *nm |
