Consumer Description

I WAS BACKING THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE WHEN I HEARD THE LEFT FRONT TIRE BLOW OUT, AFTER REMOVING THE TIRE I NOTICED THAT THE COIL SPRING ASSOCIATED WITH THAT TIRE WAS BROKEN INTO 2 PIECES, WITH ONE OF THE PIECES PUNCTURING THE TIRE. THE CAR IS A 2002 FORD TAURUS, AND THE SPRING HAS NO CORROSION OR OTHER DAMAGES TO IT AT ALL. THANK GOODNESS I WASN'T DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THIS OCCURRED, I HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING YET TO FIX THE CAR, I WAS HOPING THERE WAS SOME SORT OF RECALL NOTICE ON IT, AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET I NOTICED THAT THERE IS NO ACTIVE RECALL ON THE 2002, BUT SEVERAL HUNDRED PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. *TW
