I'm driving a 96 Windstar down the highway 1 month after I replaced front rotors. I torqued the wheels to 100 ft-lbs as per Fords spec. I start feel the front end shake, I slow from highway speed (120 km/hr) to 90. 15 minutes later it has gotten worse, I slow to 70 and put on the 4 way flashers. It seems to stop when I turn left, worse when I turn right. goes away when I accelerate, comes back when I coast . 15 minutes later the wheel (front drivers side) comes off and I end up pulled to the right shoulder. Thank you for 2 lane divided highway.
Is this type of accident (wheels coming off or torquing problems) a historical problem with windstars???
