Crown Victoria LX 4.6L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 102,753 miles

This is the second rear axle I have had replaced in 44,000 miles. Ford has a recall on these, but only for Police/Taxi/Fleet cars and will not reimburse for what is obviously a manufacturing flaw. The Crown Vic platform is 29 years old and should not be having these problems. I am about 60 years old, drive mostly freeway and country roads, do not race. I have spoken to Ford and they claim no responsibility as my vin is not on the recall list.
