Consumer Description

I CURRENTLY OWN A 2002 FORD WINDSTAR, MY REAR AXLE HAS BROKEN IN HALF ALL THE WAY NOW, I TRIED TAKING IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP REGARDING THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I HAVE A WARRANTY BUT I WAS ADVISED THAT THEY COULD NOT FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE IT HAS RUSTED OUT AND BROKE. I AM LEARNING THAT THIS IS A BIG ISSUE AND THIS PROBLEM IS TOO EXPENSIVE TO FIX ON MY OWN. I AM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THIS VEHICLE. WHAT SHOULD I DO? AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, I AM FINDING THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS REAR AXLE ISSUE. WE NEED SOMETHING DONE. *TR
