The rear wheel adjusters are needing to be replaced every 15 to 20 thousand miles mainly on the right rear wheels. We have only been using motorcraft parts. The driver complains that there is a grinding, clicking noise coming from the rear wheels. I have checked with the dealer to see if they have had any other complaints on the issue and they tell me that they only sell a lot of them.

Vehicle stops when brake pedal applied, then moves forward while brake pedal is held down. Vehicle them moves forward on its own, again, requiring additional pedal pressure until pedal nearly at floor. Numerous drivers in the office have experienced same problem with this vehicle. Vehicle was returned to dealer (jones Ford) who said nothing was wrong - this is impossible since at least four different drivers experienced same problem.
