Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My problem is with the rear differential as well as the hub bearing assembly in the 2002 ford explorer, 60,000 miles on the vehicle. terrible grinding sound in rear wheels, both rear bearings in wheels were bad, as well as differential noise and leaking of fluid, e no recall on these issues, but i have found thousands of complaints for this same issue. it was a safety violation not to recall these. if the rear wheels lock it would send vehicle into a spin, or travel off the road, why have you not remedied this with ford? you were taking a great legal risk, by not looking out for the safety of consumers. *ak
