Umm, I dont know what plugs were in my first car, but they had to replace all 4 at 4500 miles due to fouling. If those are the correct plugs you refer to and change them out, do a hard reset and see if it makes any difference.

And for tbranca - how did the plugs look when you pulled them out?

Take a look at this.

 

The 2013 FFH Owner's Manual Specification page says the car uses SP-531:

Did you take pics that you can share? FYI - I edited the thread title to say "2013" instead of "3013".

I see that, which is odd because when I changed my spark plugs the Ford parts website listed the correct plug as SP-531.

I was very careful to get the correct spark plug at that time.

 

Something has changed, maybe the heat range of the plugs are a little different.

 

Either way, if your spark plugs look fouled or in bad condition I'd take it to the Dealer and see what they say.

Have you checked your VIN on ETIS to see if any TSB's or Recalls apply to your car?

Your Dealer can also run an OASIS report to see if any of those issues apply to your car too.
