1 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 10/30/2013

Rear end of car thumped every time you would go over the smallest separation in the road and also on a bumpy road. Replaced rear end shocks. Still have the same problem of thumping. Some times it feels like I'm going to loose the rear end of the vehicle. I was told possibly now that back bushings holding the body to the frame may be desenegrated. Vehicle has always been well maintained and garaged. I have found out that there have been many complaints about this occuring now with this 2001 model. You would think there would be a safety recall by Ford to fix these bushing problems.
