Has anyone had a problem with their 2002 Thunderbird in regard to their lower control arm? The T-bird was acting really weird this morning - when I went over a bump or over a rough piece of road, it acted like there was no control in the steering. It was really scary. I pulled over at a gas station and looked to see if there was something wrong with the tires. There wasn't - so I went about 60 mph the rest of the way. Every time I went over a bump, I thought I was going to lose control.

I took the car into my mechanic who looked at and said the lower control arm is shot and has to be replaced and that I should not be driving it. This blond is not crazy! - I know how the car drives and feels. This shouldn't happen at 47,000 miles although Ford has had some problems with their trucks doing this.

Has anyone else had this problem?
