Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I was driving down the highway when i heard a loud bang, then a second bang. both rear coil springs busted. i have noticed that this is a common problem with these springs on the sables etc.... why is it there is a recall for protective devices to keep the front springs from hitting the tires and not the rear. the rear springs are breaking at a higher rate than the front and is more dangerous .. a person can steer a front tire blow out, but most cannot steer a rear tire blow out... this is a serious issue and needs to be addressed. *tr |
