Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2007 FORD FUSION. THE IDLER PULLEY BOLT HAS BROKEN 3 TIMES IN LESS THAN A YEAR. I'VE READ IN MULTIPLE ONLINE FORUMS THAT ONCE THIS STARTS TO HAPPEN, IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN EVERY FEW MONTHS. I CAN'T SELL THIS CAR TO SOMEONE KNOWING THE BOLT WILL BREAK, AND I CAN'T CONTINUE PAYING $200 EVERY TIME IT DOES. I NEVER KNOW WHERE OR WHEN IT WILL LEAVE ME STRANDED. THIS SEEMS LIKE A FAIRLY COMMON ISSUE FOR THE 2007 FUSION; JUST GOOGLE "2007 FORD FUSION IDLER TENSION PULLEY". I'M WONDERING WHY NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT THE POOR ENGINEERING AND DESIGN OF THIS BOLT THAT IS OBVIOUSLY INADEQUATE? *TR
