What happened? Don't feel like watching a vid
Brand new purchase, drove it off the lot had a CEL. Took it back to dealership, changed out two spark plugs. Drove it off the lot after repair and got another CEL. Two broken spark plugs again. It's in Ford's hands. May not know root cause for at least a week since the OP is out of country.

100 miles on the car and he's shifting at 6000 RPM and saying "It doesn't feel very fast"? That tells me what he was going for.

There is a reason that break in periods exist.

"When I go to redline, see how it slows down and starts breaking up"?

Nuff said.

If the issue was it dropped a valve, rod exited the block, something like that definitely complain.

Bitching about sparkplugs which is a 5 minute fix? Ehhh.

Broken plugs usually show up pretty quick in my experience, shoulda been caught by PDI if it came from the factory like this.

Likely just yt'er farming outrage to pay for his new mustang he immediately broke.

800km on my dark horse driving the piss out of it and it hasn't caught fire yet.

It should be ready to go once it has a couple miles and heat cycles on it. No need to wait.
Proof positive built in safeties work?

I'm surprised millions of people are following this individual. For real? For laughs? I found him annoying.

Virtually all of his videos are drama-filled events; his shop breaks or crashes almost every vehicle.

His profile and of the people working with him is a person having little mechanical experience, modding new cars that were "impulse" buys, which were actually funded by other individuals and businesses.

The Ford Technicians, Service Advisors and Managers routinely correct him.

Let's do a write in/comment campaign to get him to test a nitroglycerine delivery truck. Should be interesting. 😂
