 Description of the problemOver the course of about two days, i noticed a scraping noise coming from the right front wheel. On the second day, i noticed upon approaching the truck that the right front fender was almost touching the tire. Removing the wheel, i discovered that the upper spring seat had deteriorated to the point that the coil spring was thirty degrees from its original position. The sheet metal in the seat crumbled in my hand when i took hold of it, and the housing was torn 75% of the way through from front to back. At high speed, this vehicle would have been a death trap. I note 15 similar complaints in your database. Left side spring seat is perfect and intact.
