the front passenger side tire blew out due to the suspension spring fracturing. Ford replaced the tire and both front springs free of charge but have apparently not issued any recall notice (that I can find anywhere) for this potentially very dangerous fault. I am pursuing this both with Ford Canada and Transport Canada due the indifference Ford have shown to my requests. Maybe they view a few legal claims for damages from people injured by a high speed blowout as the "cost of doing business" i. e. cheaper than fixing all the cars out there. We will see.
