Consumer Description

1)NOTHING IT APPEARS TO BE AN ENGINEERING OR MANUFACTURING DEFECT. 2)A CRACKED REAR AXLE/SUPPORT BEAM. IT APPEARS TO BE OCCUR MORE REGULARLY WITH VEHICLE THAT HAVE BEEN OWNED A WHILE. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 66K MILES ON IT. IT COULD POSSIBLY LEAD TO DEATH IF THIS OCCURS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS CAUSING VEHICLE CONTROL LOSS. HERE IS A QUICK REFERENCE HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/FORD/WINDSTAR/2000/DRIVETRAIN/REAR_AXLE_FAILURE.SHTML. 3)NOTHING YET. THE FIX WOULD BE TO REPLACE THE AXLE/SUPPORT BEAM. YES I STILL HAVE THE PART. *TR
