We came back to Philadelphia Airport from a Christmas trip to Utah. When we pulled out from the parking lost I selt a drag on the left rear side of the car. It was One A.M, and we went directly home, (about 35 Miles). It was Sunday Morning when I took the car to a Firestone store to check it out. The coil spring had snapped mid way down the coil, and was rubbing against the tire. We were extremely lucky that the time did not blow out. I had both coil springs replaced by Firestone, plus a new tire. Ford Motor had noting to say about the whole matter, because I did not go to them to fix it. (God knows what that would have cost). The break in the spring looked like someone took a laser cutter and sliced right through the metal, (smooth as a babys butt). I filed a complaint with Ford Motor, and nevergot a response, also with the consumer bureau, same reaction, NONE.
I was in the car manufacturing business for 15 Years, (Budd Company of Phila & Detroit), and supplied Ford with body stampings) NISSAN AND TOYOTA ARE LOOKING REAL GOOD RIGHT NOW SINCE I AM IN THE MARKET FOR A NEW CAR)
