WHEN APPROACHING A STOP, TRUCK ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN AND I AM FORCED TO STAND ON THE BRAKES TO STOP IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY A DOZEN TIMES OR MORE. SOMETIMES IT WILL BE A MONTH BEFORE ANOTHER INCIDENT. HAS HAPPENED IN REVERSE ALSO. ALWAYS STOPS ACCELERATING AFTER ABOUT 4 SECONDS. MOSTLY HAPPENS AT STOP LIGHTS OR WHEN BACKING UP. LAST INCIDENT WAS TWICE TODAY ONCE AT STOP LIGHT AND ONCE BACKING UP IN BANK PARKING LOT.

THE PLUG HAS BLOWN OUT FOR SOME REASON, I HAVE OWNED FORDS FOR 30 YEARS. AFTER DOING TALKING TO PEOPLE THE 5.4 ENGINE HAS THIS PROBLEM OF PLUGS BLOWING OUT. BOTH MY SONS AND NEPHEW HAVE FORD TRUCKS WITH THE 5.4 ENGINE AND ALL HAVE HAD BLOWN PLUGS. I AM ON A FIXED INCOME AND THE COST OF THIS IS OUT OF MY BUDGET. BUT I EXPECT FORD TO STAND BEHIND THIS PROBLEM SINCE THERE HAS BEEN SO MANY COMPLAINTS. CAN'T BELIEVE FORD HAS NOT HAD A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. I DO EXPECT FORD TO STAND BEHIND ITS GOOD NAME. I TALKED TO SOME POLICE OFFICERS AND THEY SAID THAT IS THE REASON THAT THE FORCES ARE NOW BUYING DODGE VEHICLES, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT FORD WOULD LET THIS HAPPEN BY BEING THE TOP MAKERS.
