Car was drifting brought it to mechanic and paid $650 for struts, alignment, 2 tires, drove 20 miles and the rear axle BROKE. Just broke, the mechanic says it has nothing to do with the work he did and the axle wasn't rusted. What's the deal Ford? I see from this site there are lots of people with this problem. I'm lucky it didn't happen when I was on the highway as some of the others here. Everyone I speak to says this should never happen regardless of the mileage on the vehicle.
