Consumer Description

THE FRONT SUSPENSION BALL JOINTS WERE REPLACED AT MY COST. THEY HAD STARTED SQUEAKING AND WERE WORN BADLY. MY MECHANIC SUGGESTS THAT THE ENTIRE FRONT SUSPENSION BE REBUILT FOR SAFETY BECAUSE FORD DOES NOT HAVE GREASE JOINTS ON ANY THESE PARTS. WHEN THE HORN BUTTON WAS PUSHED FOR LONGER THAN A FEW SECONDS, IT USED TO BLOW THE FUSE. THE LAST TIME IT DID THIS, IT ALSO DISABLED THE CRUISE CONTROL. I WAS TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THE ONLY FIX WAS TO REPLACE THE STEERING COLUMN WHERE THESE WIRES WERE SHORTING TOGETHER INTERNALLY.*AK
