problem #2

I had similar problem as complaint filed odi10307817. I would have a loud noise like the car suspension was bottoming out when going over moderate bumps. I also had excessive tire wear on front tires at only 32000 miles, front tires had to be replaced. Ford said they could not duplicate the problem of bottoming out after much complaining Ford finally fixed everything but said the front end was out of alignment. When asked what was done to fix the problem was informed that the subframe had to be adjusted and because of that an alignment had to be performed. I even found on Ford's website a service bulletin for there service technicians for the loud noise when bottoming out.
