2013/14 Taurus, MKS, Flex, MKT recall for right-hand halfshaft disengagement

Boggus · July 14, 2014, 06:44:27 PM

Mine was checked and cleared .... good to go until it falls off.
The noise from the rear driver tire was the tire...chopped on the inside tread. Weird.

Has anyone had it performed?!? Sounds to me like its a wait and see recall. smh...

Ha! Yeah. I can perform this inspection on my own. I'm not even going to bother dropping by the dealer. I'll just wait until it falls apart. Fix Or Repair Daily!

You have to actually pull it out of the garage for it to break...

Is there a build date or VIN number for 2014 Police Interceptor Ecoboost Sedan with half shaft problems? Just got recall for license plate light replacement - parts available in September. Thanks.

DID my halfshaft inspection on 7/25,all good,also performed TSB 13-5-14,washer on axles and wheel bearings on both sides.

Damn, FMC is spending a ton of money on the front end of these cars. Our Explorer also just had the Steering recall done on it. Someone at Ford didn't do their homework

Work order stated shop forman drove the car for 8 miles to make sure there is no noise present after performing service,and stated this Ford dealer is not cheap like others,and want you as a Ford customer now and the future.

Agreed, the work needs to be done. I have had 2 sets of hubs and the washer TSB applied to mine. Either the parts suppliers have fallen on their faces or the redesign of the PP front end was a fail from the go.

Mine is shot. I'm the 3rd one to fail and it is the worst, out over an inch.

I blame Torrie, LOL!

I'm going take my car in a couple weeks for the rear license plate bulb recall and the halfshaft inspection...is it even necessary to worry about taking the tune off it?
