Consumer Description

MY BACK AXLE BROKE IN HALF WHILE DRIVING AND LUCKILY WE WERE NOT KILLED OR ON ANY MAJOR HIGHWAY AT A HIGH SPEED. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH FORD WINDSTARS, THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. MOST REPAIR CENTERS SAY THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT AND THIS SHOULD NEVER OCCUR. HOW MANY LIVES NEED TO BE LOST BEFORE FORD RECALLS THESE AXLES? MY NEIGHBOR WHO ALSO HAS A FORD WINDSTAR HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO THEM 3 MONTHS AGO. *TR
