Suspension

Recall date June 8, 2001

  • 1997 Ford Windstar

Details

On certain vehicles, the front suspension coil springs could fracture when operated in high corrosion areas (where salt is used on the roadways in the winter) for an extended period of time.

Depending on the location of the fracture, there is a potential for a fractured spring to move past the spring seat and contact a front tire causing it to deflate.

Correction: Dealers will install protective shields around the front coil springs.
