What owners wrote

Intertia fuel cut-off activated after rumble strips and a pothole while on interstate exit ramp. Dealer replaced front disk pads that were "mismatched" and occasionally caused loss of control during moderately hard braking. Steering wheel makes creaking noise that could/possibly be a sign that air bag circuit may not function reliably if needed.

On april 15, 2003 I took my 1999 ford crown victoria (VIN [xxx]) to the bill currie ford dealership in tampa, florida, for servicing. The rear brake pads were worn out (2 mm remaining) while the front brake pad wear was normal (8 mm remaining). The entire braking system was checked and no malfunction was detected. I notified ford motor company and received no viable explanation for the excessive wear on the rear brakes.
