Consumer Description

THE REAR PASSENGER WHEEL BEARING FAILED CAUSING SMOKE AND ALMOST A FIRE. I HAD THE RECALL DONE AT TRI COUNTY FORD IN MAULDRAUGH KY, AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAD HAPPENED. I WENT TO LES PINKHAM LINCOLN MERCURY AND BOUGHT NEW WHEEL BEARINGS AND HAD MY PERSONAL MECHANIC REPLACE THE BEARING. HE STATED THAT THE BRAKE DRUM AND WHEEL ARE POSSIBLE WARPED AND MIGHT NEED REPLACEING. I ALSO WANT A REFUND ON THE BEARINGS AND LABOR COST FOR THE MECHANIC TO REPLACEMENT OF BEARINGS.*AK
