Consumer Description

I SAW THE RECALL ON EARLIER VEHICLES, BUT THE FORD DLR ON THIS REQUEST REPLACED THE FRONT END SUSPENSION ON MY TRUCK AFTER CLAIMING THEY HAD SEEN A LOT OF PROBLEMS LIKE THIS AND FORD CALLED IT AN "ENGINEERING FLAW". I AM HOPING THE NHTSA WILL REVIEW THIS PROBLEM AND EXPAND IT'S RECALL.
