SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK
DURING BAD WEATHER CONDITIONS (RAIN MIXED WITH SNOW) DRIVER APPLIED BRAKES & VEHICLE WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN, CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL WHICH RESULTED IN ANCOLLISION. UPON IMPACT, BOTH AIRBAGS DID NO DEPLOY WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED INJURY. ALSO, STEERING FAILURE. *AK

SUSPENSION:FRONT
I OWN A 2003 FORD TAURUS WITH DEFECTIVE FRONT COIL SPRINGS. ON 6/22/09, THE SPRING ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE BROKE WHILE SITTING IN MY GARAGE AND PUNCTURED THE TIRE. ACCORDING TO FORD, AND MY MECHANIC, THESE SPRINGS WERE RECALLED, BUT ONLY UP TO THE 2001 TAURUS. THE SPRING SHOWED NO SIGNS OF RUST OR CORROSION, AND BASICALLY JUST CRACKED AND BROKE. IF THE BREAK HAD OCCURRED WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN IT WOULD HAVE HAD THE POTENTIAL OF SERIOUS INJURY/DEATH. AS THE SPRINGS APPEAR TO BE THE SAME AS IN THE 2001 MODEL, I AM CURIOUS WHY THE 2003 SPRINGS WERE ALSO NOT RECALLED. I NOW HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE BOTH SPRINGS REPLACED, AS WELL AS THE TIRE, WHICH WAS NEARLY NEW. *TR
