Consumer Description

2000 FORD WINDSTAR WITH APPROX 102,000 MILES AND REAR MAIN AXLE BEAM BROKEN ALMOST INTO. HAVE DONE SOME INTERNET SEARCHES AND FOUND SEVERAL CASES OF THIS. THERE IS NO RECALL FROM FORD AND THIS IS EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE WITH WINDSTARS. LOST ALMOST TOTAL CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE AND THANK GOD I WAS TRAVELING AT ONLY 10 MPH. AT INTERSTATE SPEED THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ALMOST CERTAIN CATASTROPHE. WILL BE CONTACTING FORD IN MORNING TO SEE WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY BUT FROM ALL ONLINE ACCOUNTS THEY SEEM TO BE REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR EVEN OFFER TO REPAIR. I WOULD MUCH RATHER HAVE A STICKY GAS PEDAL THAT I CAN SOMEWHAT CONTROL THE TO HAVE AN AXLE SNAP INTO AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *TR
