Default 3-Valve engine spark plug lawsuit settlement

Found this on the web. Some may already know about it, some not.

Ford Motor Company

Ford Motor Company was sued because spark plugs used in their three valve engines would sometimes get stuck and break inside the engine when being replaced. It was alleged that Ford should have known their spark plug design was defective and prone to break inside the engine making them difficult and expensive to remove.


Who is eligible: The owners or former owners of the following vehicles with less than 120,000 miles when making a spark plug repair
* 2004-2008 Ford F-150 truck
* 2005-2008 Ford F-Super Duty Truck
* 2005-2008 Ford Expeditions
* 2005-2008 Ford Expeditions
* 2005-2008 Lincoln Navigator
* 2005-2008 Lincoln Mark LT
No proof of sparkplug repair is required, but without documentation your settlement will be limited.
Payout: If you have documentation of spark plug replacement and the repair was more than $300 but less than $500, you are eligible for 20% of the bill over $300. If the repair was between $500 to $1000 than Ford will reimburse you $40 + 50% of your repair cost over $500. If the repair was over $1000, than Ford will reimburse you $290 + 75% of your repair bill over $1000. If you have no documentation, you can still file a claim for up to $50.
Deadline to file a claim: 8/25/2016
Where to file:
Where to file: Ford Motor Co. Spark Plug
