Consumer Description
THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY 2015 FORD EXPLORER FOR THE TOE LINK SUSPENSION REPLACEMENT. I HAD OT FIXED ON 1/7/20 AND ON 2/14/20 I WAS DRIVING ON 106 IN SPRINGFIELD VERMONT DOING 50 MILES PER HOUR AND THE TOE LINK SUSPENSION THEY REPLACED BROKE AND I LOST TOTAL CONTROL OF MY SUV. ALL MOST HAD HEAD ON COLLISION I WAS ALMOST KILLED. I HAD IT TOWED TO FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOOK IT APART AGAIN AND STATED THAT THE REASON THE TOE LINK SUSPENSION CONTINUES TO BREAK IS DUE TO THE NUCKLE AND BUSHINGS. AND FORD CORPORATION SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED AND THERE FOR I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS AND TOTAL COST. WHICH IS $2,411 I DO NOT HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY. MY SUV IS STILL AT FORD DEALERSHIP. NEED HELP RESOLVING THIS ISSUE AND GET MY SUV FIXED AS IT IS THERE CAUSE OF THE BREAKAGE. PLEASE TELL PEOPLE NOT TO DRIVE THERE VEHICLE IF THERE TOE LINK SUSPENSION IS BAD CAUSE WHEN IT GOES YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OF YOUR STEERING. AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN ITS GONA HAPPEN. IT'S LIKE SLIDING ON ICE SIDE WAYS. VERY SCARY. NEVER WANT TO GO THOUGH THIS EVER AGAIN. THIS HAPPEN ON A BUSY STREET WITH ON COMING VEHICLES THAT SOME HOW I DIDNT HAVE HEAD ON COLLISION. I DO NOT HAVE PICS AS MY VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO FORD DEALERSHIP. HIDE TIRE ON PASSENGER SIDE POINTED OUT AND WOULD DRIVE SIDE WAYS AND THAT'S WHAT I WAS DOING AT 50 MILES AN HOUR. NOT A GOOD FEELING
