Consumer Description

Premature failure of left front coil spring with approximately 103,000 miles on truck.. Spring is still not repaired. I believe the broken state of this spring could have steering and handling implications to both this vehicle and others under certain conditions while operating vehicle on rough roadways, especially pothole laden ones. This spring failure was brought to my attention by may local Ford dealer during a routine inspection. I reported the premature failure to Ford Motor Company during a detailed chat session on line and also a detailed letter mailed to Ford. My only warning was when my dealer reported it to me. I did some online research and this seems to a fairly common occurrence. I also believe Ford is aware that this problem is related to inferior material and or workmanship of these coil springs, with the spring coating being related to the premature failure.
