2002 Mercury Sable. 40k miles. Front driver's side coil spring failed (broke) while backing car from driveway. Spring failure caused rupture of front driver's side tire. Spring caused the front wheel to lock up, disabling the vehicle. It was towed to dealership where the damaged tire and all 4 coil springs were replaced as a preventative measure. There did not appear to be any corrosion on the broken coil spring. The paint was intact, there was no evidence of pitting or bubbling, and the steel looked like a clean break.

Tire developed a 3 inch long bubble in sidewall, dealer would not replace, told to take it to general tire. General claimed I ran over something (which I had not) and would not replace under warranty. I replaced tire at my expense for safety reasons. ( dot number: tire size: p205/65/r1 ).
