I bought this used 1999 Ford Expedition 5.4L and noticed a knocking first time and saw that the #3 spark plug had come unscrewed from inside, then as I replaced it the #4 came unscrewed, re screwed it back in and now the obd II codes came up the spark plug was no longer good, as I have wanted to change the spark plugs all new I am unable to screw back in a new spark plug in #4 spark plug hole. I didn't know that spark plugs could unscrew on their own till now. I believe Ford if they knew about this problem in the first place they should repair at their own cost for something they knew would happen.
