Default Spark plug covered by ford?

ok I have just bought my 2008 fx4, build date 10-9-2007. It is FORD certified and warranty'd to 100k or January 2015... Is the spark plug issue covered by FORD's certified warranty?

I do not think spark plugs are covered under warranty because they are considered a maintenance part and usually are not covered.

BUT. Are you having issues or are you just wanting to tune up your truck? How many miles are on the vehicle? On the other note, you could always call the dealers service department and just inquire. BUT, if you are having issues and are throwing codes, that should be covered under warranty.

The TSB says prior to 10/9/07 for the 5.4L. Wow, talk about being close.
