Purrfect Auto
Brake job and tune-up

Cars & Transport

Ought my Ford Explorer for a brake job. After speaking to the mechanic decided to get a tune-up.

After receiving the car back, informed mechanic that the idle on the car was a bit rough while idling? He said, it's okay once you are driving

Drove off to work and about 1 mile into the drive the truck started shaking? Called mechanic, he said bring the truck back for look at.

After checking out the truck again. The mechanic said, it's because Ford Explorer tend to have these type of problem with the electronic ignitions.

Recommendation:
replace electronic ignition - more money to repair

Got truck back after repairs, drove off and truck still running rough while idle

A few weeks, drove truck to the store and suddenly the truck made this awful noise and then engine died

Checked out truck and spark plug# 6 unscrewed it self from the engine. Towed truck to nearby gas station and the mechanic said that spark plug# 4 & 5 looks loose too after replacing and repairing spark plug# 6.

Total lost of repairs to Purrfect Auto - $561.05
