Consumer Description

OWN A 2002 FORD TAURUS. CAR PARKED IN PARKING GARAGE WHILE AT WORK. AFTER WORK WENT TO CAR, STARTED IT, PUT INTO REVERSE, MOVED NOT EVEN THREE INCHES, SOUND LIKE GUNSHOT, FRONT SPRING BLEW THROUGH FRONT TIRE ON DRIVER SIDE. MY SON SAID I HAD GUARDIAN ANGEL...WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED IF CAR HAD ACTUALLY MADE IT TO THE ROAD. I HAVE ONLY HAD CAR THREE YEARS. TOWED TO REPAIR SHOP, MECHANIC SAID LOOKS JUST LIKE RECALL SITUATION ON 2001 TAURUS, SAME SPRING INCIDENT..MINE NATURALLY NOT COVERED, BUT THIS IS WRONG. I WAS NOT AWARE OF RECALLS ON 2001 VEHICLES. I HAVE NO MONEY, THIS REPAIR WILL SET ME BACK QUITE A BIT. I AM THANKFUL THAT NOBODY WAS HURT BY FLYING PARTS! *TR
