| 2001 | SUSPENSION:REAR:SPRINGS | 2001 MERCURY SABLE LEFT REAR COIL SPRING HAD BROKE AND CUT THE TIRE.*MR *JB |
| 2002 | SUSPENSION | WHILE ATTEMPTING TO BACK OUT OF MY GARAGE, THE COIL SPRING ON THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE STRUT BROKE AND SHOT INTO MY FRONT TIRE, PUNCTURING AND IMMEDIATELY FLATTENING MY TIRE. THE SPRING WAS EMBEDDED IN THE TIRE SO FAR THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO REMOVE THE TIRE TO PUT ON THE SPARE. THE CAR HAD TO BE FORCED IN REVERSE FAR ENOUGH BACK TO BE ABLE TO HOOK IT ONTO THE TOW TRUCK WHICH SHREDDED THE FRONT TIRE. HAD TO HAVE FRONT SPRINGS, STRUTS, ABS SPEED SENSOR, ALIGNMENT AND NEW TIRE PUT ON THE VEHICLE. VERY LUCKY THAT THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED IN MY GARAGE AND NOT OUT ON THE ROADWAY. *TR |
