problem #1

Oct 222009

Ranger

  • 22,000 miles
The contact owns a 2008 Ford Ranger XL. While driving approximately 50 mph the steering column started shaking. The failure only happens when coming off a down hill ramp curving to the right when coming to a complete stop. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer and the dealer was unable to duplicate the failure. The contact stated the problem was with the composition of the material made up of the vehicles rotors, the steel not being strong enough, leading to early failure of the brake. The vehicle has not been repaired. The failure mileage was 22,000 and the current mileage was 33,500.
