Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE HAS A NOISE THAT IS SIMILAR TO A STRUT THAT IS LOSE, THAT STARTED OUT AS SLIGHT NOISE AND HAS SUBSEQUENTLY GOTTEN LOUDER. THE FUSION HAS A V-6 AND IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND WAS PURCHASED NEW; THE PROBLEM HAS EXISTED FOR YEARS WITH NO DEALER HAVING A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. THAT NOISE HAS BEEN INVESTIGATED BY TWO SEPARATE FORD DEALERS, (ONE WHERE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE) THE OTHER AN INDEPENDENT FORD DEALER I PURCHASED AN EXPLORER FROM. NEITHER COULD FIND THE CAUSE OF THE SOUND. IT OCCURS OVER BUMPS SOMETIMES AND SOMETIMES OVER SMOOTH PAVEMENT. ONE MECHANIC FROM A GOODYEAR REPAIR DEALER HEARD AND THOUGHT IT WAS THE SWAY THEN; TIGHTEN IT, BUT THE SOUND STILL EXIST. THE SOUND IS ONLY HEARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE.
