Front Suspension Stabilizer Bar Problems of Mercury Mountaineer

I have a 2000 Mercury Mountaineer and my stabilizer bars have broken twice now when I spoke to Ford mechanics they stated that it was unusual for that to happen when I looked for recalls on internet I found that (Ford corp) had recalled 95-97 for this safety problem as a SUV can turn over. When I contacted (Ford) they said sorry not our problem this issue has been going on since we bought the vehicle in 2000 now they want me to repair it again and they do not want to be responsible at any point and I believe that to be wrong and how many other Mountaineers or explorers have the same issues and wont know about it till there vehicles turn over and take a life is this what Ford waits for before they act and recall a vehicle please help I felt so alone when I spoke to Ford. I believe that Ford should stand behind there product . Thank you.

Having problems with the front stabilizer bars on my 1997 Mercury Mountaineer. I have replace them 4 times and within 6 to 8 weeks they break again. Ford had a recall and fixed them the first time and ever since then I have had trouble keeping them from breaking. Without them the truck bounces alot and hard to hold on the road.

My 2000 Mountaineer had 17,000 when purchased. I had noticed the dealer had just put new 235/75r15 goodyear wrangler r/ts on it. I was not suspicious but should have been. Ever since purchased I have had a vibration in the front end and my front tires have worn on the inside al the way down to a unsafe tread depth within 10,000 miles. The dealer alligned the front and checked for front end problems two days after purchase. At that time they found it was out but claimed they had just alligned it three days before also. At around 30,000 miles I had to replace the front tires because they were unsafe. I took them to the dealer and the gm told me that it was normal tire wear. I know quite a bit about cars but he did not know that. At that time they checked the front end allignment again and check for problems again and found nothing. A few weeks later the vbration got worse so I jacked it up myself and found that the one a-arm nut was loose. I tightend it and drove back to the dealerand showed one of their mechanics the problem. It had loosend up again already so he tightend all the a-arm nuts. Ileft and within 10 miles one was loose again. I went back to the dealer and told them to replace all the a-arm bolts and nuts. I have since went through 2 more sets of front tires ,so that is 4 sets of tires in 63,000 miles, but they say there is nothing wrong . Anyone having these same uneven tire wear and vibration problems please contact me. 865-776-2246 brian.

Recall oo v 402 000/stabilizer bar link stub: right side stabilizer bar link stub broke. Dealer notified, and did repairs under warranty. Because of one month difference in age, this vehicle was not included in the recall eventhough the problem was the same.
