2009 FORD FLEX Suspension Problems

While driving around February 20th, 2022 we started swerving uncontrollably and almost ran into the curb and flipped while going about 40 MPH. My husband put on breaks but it felt like we were sliding on ice....without any ice on the road. We almost flipped and were very shaken, and lucky. We got vehicle to Firestone and they said our left rear toe link had broke. Supposedly our vehicle year is not part of the recall, I think it should be. Thank you

THE SUSPENSION SYSTEM ON THE 2009 FORD FLEX CONSTANTLY HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE LOWER CONTROL ARM UPPER CONTROL ARM CAUSING BRAKING SYSTEM TO MALFUNCTION.

TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY ROUGH.WHILE IN MOTION.

WHILE DRIVING FORD FLEX ON HIGHWAY OR IN TOWN MY ANTIBRAKE SYSTEM RANDOMLY ACTIVITIES CAUSING MY ENTIRE VEHICLE TO STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN THREE TIMES AND I HAVE COMPLAINED TO FORD RED MCCOMBS DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAN'T FIND NOTHING WRONG. I WAS BILLED ABOUT 225.00 DOLLARS FOR A ANTIBRAKE SWITCH AND MY CAR WAS NOT FIXED. YES, AND I HAVE COMPLAINT TO FORD DEALERSHIP AND MADE THEM AWARE OF MY CONTINOUS BRAKE PROBLEMS WITH MY FORD FLEX VEHICLE.

I PURCHASED A 2009 FORD FLEX FROM MIKE DORIAN FORD THAT HAD 14000 MILES ON IT. TWO DAYS AFTER PURCHASE I TOOK IT TO A DEALER FOR A BAD GRINDING SOUND IN THE BRAKES. THEY PERFORMED A TSB ON THE FRONT BRAKES. I TOOK IT BACK SEVERAL MORE TIMES FOR BRAKING ISSUES. THEN THE CAR CAME TO A GRINDING STOP IN TRAFFIC SEVERAL TIME AND I ALMOST GOT HIT. I TOOK IT TO 2 DIFFERENT DEALERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE VIOLENT SHAKING AND THE INABILITY FOR IT TO GO WHEN I GAVE IT GAS. FINALLY AFTER THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIME I WAS HIT AS THE TRANSMISSION BROUGHT THE CAR TO A HALT. I SUFFERED INJURIES AND THE CAR HAD $15000 WORTH OF DAMAGES.
