THE ENGINE CRADLE SUPPORT BUSHINGS HAVE CORRODED, NOW THE A PIECE OF THE STEEL FRAME IS HANGING DOWN, MY EXHAUST MAY HAVE BEEN DAMAGED AS WELL AS THE RACK & PINION.

THE CAR IS UNDRIVABLE AT THIS TIME.I HAVE CONTACTED 3 DEALERS AS WELL AS CUSTOMER SERVICE 800 FOR FORD AND NHTSA AND AM NOT GETTING THIS RESOLVED, I'M BEING TOLD I HAVE NO OPEN RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE.I DON'T SEE HOW THIS IS POSSIBLE.
