Rear Suspension problems of the 2000 Ford Focus

My car was parked at the airport. When I returned home after my car had been parked for three days the anti-lock brakes light came on and my car was making a loud noise. I took it to the dealer and the rear left ball bearing was broken and I was informed by the service technician that my wheel could fall off. I later realized that the same ball bearing was previously fixed under recall 01b85. However the dealer would not cover the expense and I had to pay for it myself. I later wrote a letter to Ford to request a refund and my request was denied.

There was an excessive vibration coming from the rear passenger tires, the dealer was unable to determine cause of vibration or excessive wear on tires.

While traveling on the interstate there was a sway/shift in the rear end of the vehicle as she was crossing a bridge, which caused a loss of control. Scc.

When consumer went to have her 30,000 maintenance service performed, she was informed that new tires were needed in order to correct the wobbling nosie that was felt and heard in the rear wheel, consumer believes that new tires are possibly needed due to a previous recall on the rear axle, secondly when consumer brought the vehicle in for tire rotation she could never get documentation stating that the work was performed, consumer now has doubts that the tire rotation was ever done.

Corrected copy. Major assembly listed wrong in orginial report. No safety defect listed.

I have been completely dissatisfied with this Ford product. I didn't put more information in this report because I wasn't sure I was doing it right. I plan to return the vehicle to the shop again today because last time it was there, they fixed the idle, window, and noisy suspension. . . Guess whay, I still have all those same problems!!!.

When get speed above 50,the car starts jump anyside.

While driving 65mph over a bump in the road back end of vehicle will shift to one side. Dealership was contacted.

This car in snowy/icy conditions becomes in some cases nearly uncontrolable. It constantly sways from side to side and the back end tries to come around. I love this car on the dry but in the slick conditions is becomes the worst car I've ever owned. There must be something fundamentally wrong with it. It has been this way since new. I've had everything checked on it, installed new tires etc. And nothing seems to help. This is suppose to be a low cost car for the 1st time car byer but I'd not recommend it to anyone much less an enexperenced driver. I will not let my 16 year old drive it if the conditions are even a little slick. It can be a terrifying car to drive.
