When driving the steering will feel loose and the car sway left and right but the steering wheel isn't moving. Feels like the front wheels are going to all of a sudden shoot left or right and loose control.. I had a 2001 crown Victoria and there was a recall on the steering shaft and I got that fixed. it was doing the exact thing my mercury is doing now.. and also my electrical is freaking out.. turn signals flash very fast here and there.. speedometer will freak out and then not work.... I'm mostly concerned about the steering because it happened in my crown victoria.

PLEASE NOTE: This complaint/issue pertains to many nearly identical plastic intake manifolds sold as OEM, new or replacements for cars made in the last ten years- Dangerous perhaps fatal fires are likely not getting reported due to the nature of the cause. My car has a plastic manifold. When a fuel injector or fuel regulator fails, raw gasoline can collect in the plastic bottom. If more than a few drops collects, turning over the engine can cause, and did in my car, a massive explosion. Fortunately the blue & white cloud of smoke that filled my two-car garage did not ignite. Had it ignited my son and I might not have survived and our home may have burned. Not that your organization takes all complaints seriously, particularly when thousands of cars might be involved, but these cheap plastic manifolds present a real danger I believe could have already caused deaths and property damage. If you are a political entity I suspect you will ignore this. But at least a warning should be give t

I BELIEVE THERE IS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE WITH MANY OF THE FORD MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS FROM MULTIPLE YEARS OF MODELS. IT TOOK ONLY MINIMAL EFFORT TO FIND THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AS I DO WITH CARS OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL REGARDING THE FRONT WHEEL ASSEMBLY BEING HAZARDOUS AND ULTIMATELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. MY PERSONAL ISSUE IS A VERY NOTICEABLE CLANKING/THUDDING COMING FROM MOSTLY THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT TIRE AND THE ASSEMBLY USED TO CONTROL AND SECURE THE TIRE. MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS APPEARED AS RESULTS ON GOOGLE AFTER ATTEMPTING TO SEARCH SOLUTIONS AND ANSWERS TO WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I FOUND MORE THAN ONE ACCOUNT OF PEOPLE LOSING FRONT TIRES WHILE DRIVING AND EVEN COMING TO A STOP TO PARK. I BELIEVE THERE IS A MASSIVE SAFETY CONCERN HERE WITH SO MANY IDENTICAL ACCOUNTS ON THE SAME ISSUE. I FOR ONE RELY ON MY PERSONAL VEHICLE GREATLY AND TRULY THINK THE COMPANY SHOULD BE FORCED TO COME UP WITH A LEGITIMATE SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE. LIVE ARE AT RISK HERE AND I FOR ON
