Consumer Description

WITHOUT ANY WARNING, MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HER 2000 LINCOLN LS AND THE LEFT FRONT LOWER BALL JOINT STUD BROKE AND THE WHEEL JAMMED UNDER THE FENDER AND THE CAR SWERVED TO THE RT SIDE OF THE ROAD. I CALLED THE LOCAL LINCOLN DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THIS HAPPENS QUITE OFTEN ON THE LINCOLN LS BALL JOINTS AND THEY SELL A $500 PART TO REPLACE THE BALL JOINT AND SPINDLE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DESIGN AND FLAW IF IT BREAKS STRAIGHT OFF WITH NO WARNING. GOOD THING SHE WAS ONLY DRIVING 25MPH WHEN IT HAPPENED AND NOT 65 MPH, WHO KNOWS. I CAN ONLY NOW WORRY THAT THE RIGHT SIDE MIGHT BREAK TOO WITHOUT WARNING?? *TR
