1 Brake Disc problem

Failure Date: 02/21/2002

While traveling between 55-60 mph and hitting the brakes, the front end and steering wheel shake very badly. Braking is very dangerous. Resurfacing discs is not the answer. The rotors must be replaced. Ford motor company, not the consumer, should pay for this as this is a vehicle defect. I feel unsafe driving this vehicle at this time.

2 Brake Disc problem

While driving at highway speed applied brakes and without warning vehicle will vibrate violently. Dealer has been notified; however had not remedied the problem.
