BLOWED SPARK PLUG OUT OF CYL HEAD SITTING AT HIGHWAY INTERSECTION COULD HAVE CAUSE FIRE WITH FUEL PLUG AND COIL ON TOP OF ENGINE

TOP FRONT OF FUEL TANK RUSTED OUT AND FUEL LEAKS ESPECIALLY WHEN TANK IS FULL . OTHER AREAS ON TOP ARE ALSO VERY CLOSE TO RUSTING THRU . IRONICALLY THERE WAS A RECALL FEW YEARS AGO TO REPLACE THE 2 GAS TANK HOLDING STRAPS AND THE FORD DEALER SAID THE GAS TANK WAS FINE ?!? SO EITHER HE WAS BLIND OR DIDN'T HAVE A FLASH LIGHT OR HAVE AN INSPECTION MIRROR OR WAS TOO LAZY TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK BECAUSE IT ISN'T AN EASY JOB ? I FEEL THAT FORD HAS ENDANGERED MY LIFE AND MY FAMILY'S LIFE DUE TO THEIR BLATANT SHOW OF INCOMPETENCE AND IRRESPONSIBILITY ! ONCE THE GASOLINE SHOULD IGNITE IT WILL CATCH THE GAS TANK ON FIRE RESULTING IN A FIREBALL AND EXPLOSION . I ALSO HAVE ANY MORE PICTURES IF NEEDED . THANK YOU,
