Consumer Description

I HAVE REPLACED THE BROKEN BOLT ON THE IDLER PULLEY FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 6 MONTHS. THIS IS AN ANNOYING ISSUE WITH THIS ENGINE. FORTUNATELY IT HAPPENED ON STATRT UP SO WE WERE IN THE DRIVEWAY. HAD IT HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY, THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING COULD HAVE EASILY RESULTED IN A FATAL CRASH. THE BOLT IS POORLY DESIGNED AND NEEDS TO BE LARGER AND OR HARDER. IF THIS IS NOT FIXED SOMEONE WILL EVENTUALLY BE KILLED. HOW MANY DEATHS DOES IT TAKE TO WARRANT ATTENTION BY FORD???
