Takata recall during an inspection of my suspension for worn bushings, I noted severe corrosion on my rear trailing arms for the rear axle. The lower arm on the passenger side actually had a quarter size hole in the inboard side of the web. This obviously greatly reduces the strength of the arms and could cause axle separation from the vehicle and an obvious control hazard.

The contact owns a 2002 Ford Expedition. While driving at low speeds and attempting to accelerate, the tires wobbled. In addition, the front and rear of the vehicle were unstable. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that all four rims were bent. The vehicle was taken to another independent mechanic who diagnosed that the belts and bands were worn for all four tires and that all four tires could have blown out. The mechanic stated that the front passenger side tire was frayed to the point that it could blow out and needed to be replaced. All four tires were replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 102,000.

Ford Expedition failed suspension system repair request under warranty. The consumer's believed the suspension system is faulty. The consumer contacted the manufacturer but they refused any assistance. The transmission started with an occasional chunk and or ratcheting sound, rough, did not move and would bang when moved, the driver window occasionally rolled up out of the top rack and there was air leakage, the vehicle was extremely bouncy and was so severe that the consumers head would bounce against the roof top of the vehicle and the vehicle swayed severely when the vehicle made a turn around curves.
