| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 2001 taurus: the spring on the ear driver's side wheel broke and destroyed the tire. ford knew that the springs installed on this type of vehicle were prone to breaking, and even had a recall relating to this exact problem for the front wheels. i didn't understand how it was determined that there was a problem with the springs, but failed to replace all the springs during the recall. when i contacted the dealership i was told that they were surprised that there was not a recall on the rear springs, and that they thought that there should have been a recall.*ak |
