2001 Lincoln Ls Suspension Recall 00V359001NHTSA: Action Number: N/A Service Bulletin Number: 00V359001
- Report Date:
Nov 03, 2000
- Component:
Suspension
- Potential Units Affected:
82300
- Manufacturer:
Ford Motor Company
Summary: Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. The front suspension lower ball joints were not tightened to specifications when they were attached to the lower control arms.
Consequence: If the ball joint attaching nuts are not adequately tightened, they can loosen and, ultimately, result in fracture of the ball joint stud. If the ball joint fractures, control of the vehicle could be affected, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the torque on the two ball joint attaching nuts. Vehicles with loose ball joint attaching nuts will either have the fasteners tightened to specification, or if necessary, the ball joints will be replaced.
Notes: Owner notification began november 24, 2000. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact ford at 1-800-392-3673. Also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).

I changed mine, as the dealer was way out of order price wise. The trick is to remove passenger side tire and put jack stand under ball joint and then lower your lift so that the lower control arm with ball joint takes the weight. You then can rotate the alternator enough to remove from underneath the car. Be sure when replacing the upper bolt, that it goes through the correct mounting hole for the bolt.
