The passenger side front radius arm bushing failed on my 1995 ford f-150 resulting in the loss of steering. The vehicle had 74,900 miles at the time of incident. The failure was repaired at courtesy ford in syracuse at a cost of 549.21. The reason I was given for the failure was rot. I was about to enter an interstate and had this failure occurred then it probably would have resulted in a fatal accident. Since this is a item that is crucial to safety I feel that this item should not have failed. Also, when being repaired, the driver side bracket was also repaired as it was about to fail also.
