NHTSA Complaint #10329675 — 2002 FORD TAURUS

I, LIKE THOUSANDS OF OTHERS, HAVE EXPERIENCED A FAILURE IN THE FRONT COIL SPRINGS OF MY 2002 FORD TAURUS. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY FATAL, AS THE SPRING RIPS THROUGH THE TIRE WHEN IT FAILS/BREAK. I UNDERSTAND THAT FORD RECALLED ALL 1999-2001 MODELS FOR THIS VERY ISSUE BUT DESPITE IT CONTINUING TO OCCUR ON 2002 AND 2003 MODELS THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING AND DO NOT HONOR THE REPAIR AS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, WHICH IS VERY COSTLY. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE AT RISK ON THE ROADS WITH THIS CONDITION AND SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE. *TR
