My wife commented that she had difficulty steering her Ford Explorer on 4/8/00. I drove the vehicle and agreed that it seemed to "sway" from side to side. Examining the vehicle, I noticed a part was missing from the front right wheel/axle assembly. I later found the part in my driveway. It was a "sway link assembly" according to the dealer. I had dealer replace lf as well as rf as I feel the part was defective. It simply snapped in half. Things like this should last the life of the car, not break after 5 years.

I noticed bouncing of the vehicle when traveling over dips in the road. I would imagine this problem is very wide spread but is not noticeable to many people because the of the "firmness" of the other parts of the suspension. Such as the torsion bars. I had front shocks replaced after pressuring the ditschman Ford(flemington, NJ) dealership pretty hard. I noticed the difference immediately. The problem seemed to reappear again after only 4,000 additional miles.the same problem seems to be true of the rear shocks also. This problem results in bouncing and diving of the nose of the vehicle during hard braking. I would imagine in emergency(severe)handling the vehicle would not perform as expected. I am now considering an aftermarket set of shocks.
