Taurus

  • miles
Stabilizer bar in the rear wheels broke and the rear wheels were ready to come off our car. If we had not pulled off the freeway exactly when we did, everyone in our automobile would most likely have been killed. The left rear wheel started coming off approximately two blocks after we exited the freeway. The automobile went out of control, and we had to have our brand new Ford Taurus towed to our car dealership. Our dealer refused to take our car back, after our car had three safety problems, and we are now in litigation.
