Consumer Description

FRONT & REAR ENGINE MOUNTS REPLACE ABOUT 3 TO 4 YEARS AGO UNDER FORD RECALL PROGRAM. FRONT & REAR ENGINE MOUNTS FAILED AGAIN CAUSING EXTREME ENGINE VIBRATION AND CAUSING ENGINE TO HIT CAR HOOD. FORD WAS CONTACTED AND REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND REPLACE THE PREVIOUSLY FAILED AND REPLACED ENGINE MOUNTS HAD FAILED AGAIN FOR THE SECOND TIME. IN ORDER TO AVOID ANY FURTHER DAMAGE, I REPLACED THESE PARTS AT MY OWN EXPENSE. THIS CAR IS 8 YEARS OLD AND IS ON IT'S THIRD SET OF ENGINE MOUNTS ! THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE REPLACED BY FORD.
