Explorer Sport Trac 6-cyl

  • 45,000 miles
Noticed clunking sound coming from right rear while going over speed bumps or pot holes. When it was raining the right tire would spin after hitting pot hole and the electronic skid control would flash on dash indicating lost traction. If this had been ice or snow I could of lost control of vehicle. The failure was the right rear control arm bushing. Right tires were visibly worn more than the left side tires. Dealer replaced rear control arm bushing. 45,000 miles and still under warranty. Dealer has part.
