Heard large bang under hood while driving on freeway. Took car to dealer since it sounded like engine trouble. Dealer identified problem as spark plug blew out of engine. Plug and cables appeared to be original (approx 150000 miles). Dealer thought this might be related to currents in aluminum engine wearing down spark plug threads due to elecrolysis. He explained that all spark plugs are in a state where they could blow out and so advised that head needed replacement at $1800.
