I have a 2002 ford explore with 47,000 miles. was told both rear springs were broke during vehicle inspection. don't know when they broke. daily driver only, no towing. should not happen at 47,000 miles should have a recall with all the complaints with springs. *tr
Upon taking my 2002 ford explorer for a routine oil change. i was informed by the ford dealer that my left rear spring was broken. my explorer only has 26,116 miles, how could the springs break? i never carry anything heavy, usually only one person is in the vehicle. iv'e been reading on the internet and there are hundreds of other people with the same problem. why hasn't nhtsa looked in this issue since it is a safety problem? ford motor co. knows this is a defect since they changed their design after it was discovered. can nhtsa re-examine this issue and order a recall before someone jets injured. *tr
Without warning my rear wheel hub assembly keep braking. suddenly the vehicle starts to shimmy and pull and make grinding noises and the wheel is practically falling off by the time i get home. this has happened to me 6 times in the past year! so far i have been lucky and my wheel hasn't fallen completely off, only because i have replaced the rear differential twice in the last 2 years so as soon as i feel something out of the ordinary i have it checked! it is terrifying when it happens, the whole wheel wobbles and going slow only makes it seem worse. i've had to replace the whole hub assembly at a cost of $300.00 plus each time! *tr
Both rear coil springs on my 02 ford explorer broke. there wasn't any indications prior for us to know it would happen.when it did it fell onto rubber stops but tracted crooked and spring almost hit tire.i went to dealer they said no recall call ford. i called ford rep said nothing they could do not enough complaints to justify a recall or fix my explorer. i went to local parts store and bought monroe quik strut.. installed myself.saved old parts just in case because ford said get rid and save my receipt for parts in case of future recall.vehicle mileage at time was about 46,000 miles. *tr
Rear coil spring. after having tire rotated was informed that driver rear spring was broken. had both rear coil springs replaced since this seems to be an eventual problem down the road. *tr
