Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2002 FORD TAURUS WHICH HAS EXPERIENCED 2 SUSPENSION SPRING FAILURES IN THE LAST YEAR. THE REAR LEFT OCCURRED ABOUT 8 MONTHS AGO AND THE MOST RECENT WAS THE FRONT LEFT ON 6/26/08. THE FRONT SPRING FAILURE WAS IN A PARKING LOT AS I WAS BACKING OUT, WITH THE SPRING PUNCTURING THE TIRE WITH COMPLETE LOSS OF PRESSURE. THE VEHICLE HAS 105K MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AT THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. IN BOTH CASES THE SPRINGS AND STRUTS WERE REPLACED, ALIGNMENT PERFORMED AND IN THE CASE OF THE FRONT, I HAD TO HAVE TWO NEW TIRES IN ORDER TO HAVE A MATCHED PAIR. *TR
