problem #1

May 212002

Probe

  • miles
Left front coil spring broke (due to defective material and/or corrosion) going over curb. Tire punctured; car not driveable. Towed to local Ford dealer for replacement of front coil spring & components. Spent additional $$ to have corresponding right front coil spring replaced (as safety precaution) although dealer did not suggest doing so. Fortunate not to have been on expressway driving at high rate of speed.
