ignition coils f-150

My f-150 recently acted up it only has 54,000 miles on it and i just had to dump 905 dollars into the truck because the ignition coils went bad. The dealership carries 100 of these in stock is this an on going problem? Will there be a recall? let me know if anyone has had this broblem? thanks much appreciated

I agree all 8 shouldn't go at the same time not saying it can't happed but the odds of it happening is very rare.

the mechanic told me that only four were bad but if you just changed four it wouldn't be good for the system so change them all???? did't make sense to me
