I took my car to have a oil change, and my mechanic saw that the left side rear suspension cross stabilizer bar is rusted and the bolts are rusted. He said to call Ford there should be a recall. There is not so I called Ford and they just filed a complaint. I can not take my car on the interstate or go over 40 mph if I did my mechanic said if the right side broke off the car would flip. My concern is does something have to happen first I transport my grand kids but I can't go over 40. Can you help me with this.
