Description of the problem	After purchasing a used 95 windstar just 58 days ago from pundman ford while traveling 35-40 miles an hour on 61-67 in imperial mo. With four passengers (2 adult couples) after changing into the curb lane to be prepared for a right turn some ways down the road there was a sudden jolt/drop as best i can describe and immediately the van was swerving,skidding,and traveling sideways out of control. It was all i (driver) could do to struggle and fight with the steering to manuvere it to the side of the road in a vacant parking lot.(avoiding a horrific accident) the passengers were hysterical and amazed that i was able to maintain compose long enough to bring it to a safe stop. We thought we must have blown a tire but once the hysteria had dissipated and the men began a visual inspection of the van they found the tires were intact. Upon further inspection it was noticed beneath the car something was indeed broken and the left rear tire was now wedges into the rear bumper. When aaa came to tow us to the nearest ford dealer he too was amazed we were able to aviod the traffic (the lord was all over this ordeal)and a major collision he said that this was a first for him seeing anything like this. The car is now on rutherman ford's lot on richardson rd. In imperial,mo. Waiting to be looked at on monday (this happened on a sat. Evening). *ak
