Five Hundred

  • 85,000 miles
Top motor mount failure on 2005 Ford 500 car has low miles on it and when I looked up online there are multiple complaints about the failure. Was told by Ford dealer it was regular wear and tare but I personally have not seen motor mounts fail within 5 years and a low mileage as this vehicle and evidently many others!

Five Hundred

  • 41,259 miles
Driving our Ford Five hundred 2005 sel at 30 miles per hour my wife and felt a sudden crack on the drivers right rear side. I stopped the car and saw that the position of the tire was not adequate and suspected a damper situation, not so. Luckily we were 5 blocks away of a friendly Ford dealer, we drove with painfully squeaking tire there and when inspected the rear cross member had a crack where the welding of the adjusting camber caster is. We thanked the lord we were not on the highway as it would have been certain death. I know this is a structural failure as is the whole rear cross member part and believe is sufficient for a recall of all Ford Five hundred Ford the car has only 55,000 miles an is a 2005 sel model.
