here are some pics of the spark plugs we pull out of my buddies car the other night. the car is a 2007 chevy cobalt and it has 16,000 miles. It ran fine you couldnt really tell there was anything wrong with it. After takin the plugs out it looks like its gonna need a rebuild. two of the plugs were fine. one wasnt ate up too bad and the last one the whole electrode and porcelin was gone and it f'ed up the threads tryin to get it out. the weird thing was it ran normal.  ???








he bought the car from a ford dealership and they put the wrong spark plugs in after it threw a code sayin faulty spark plugs. but he cant take it back to them to fix it because he just cancelled the warranty on the car from the ford dealership. it still has a factory gm warranty so hes gonna try and get gm to fix it. but for the most part this car is pretty much a lemon its had tons of problems.

That's crappy. I found 2 different plugs in my Focus too. Ran like a champ after I changed them. Amazing what a difference about $22 can make in ones vehicle   :batman:

That's insane. Hopefully GM will work with you on it... But.. I'd suspect.. they won't. Not really a fault of build. Looks like Ford f*cked up.  :(
