Rt frount lower controll arm assembly- from mileage of approx. 63000 to present, 112,000, the lower controll arm assembly has had to be repalced 3 times and retorked 1. I also had to pay for realignment at each repair. Now after the 3rd replacement the car shimmies and pulles to the left, which it did not do before repair. The dealer more or less told me too bad. One of the repairs was not done by ford there for not reliable. This car has a file 2 inches thick from maintenance and repairs. There still isn't any expaination of what is causing the problem.
