When I purchased the car an employee went with me to show me some of the features. She said "go ahead and start it up". When I turned the key there was an explosion and the car was running rough as heck. She got the salesman and he took it to service and I went home. I had a Chevy Impala 2012 w/v6 with VVT, 300HP. It would fly and handled great. I had just lost over half of my income and I am letting it go back to the bank. So, I've been really feeling great about things, but what the heck stuff happens. I check back the next day and it is fixed, they simply told me a coil went bad on a plug. I thought no big deal. Well, today leaving work in a 100 degree afternoon I turn the key, get an explosion and the car runs like crap of course.

That's two coils...but NO!!! the plugs in these engines strip the threads in the head and bust the coil on the way out. Get home after trying to shoehorn it together, get on the internet and find out it is happening all the time in all types of Ford engines. Everyday! An engineering failure like that warrants a RECALL. That is not exactly shade tree mechanic repair either. luckily I'm pretty good mech. I will do it myself BECAUSE I AM BROKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lincoln, ford, Mercury, whoever you are do the right thing and recall the affected engines. If that happened going 75 down the interstate it could be a problem.
