I HAVE A 2000 FORD EXPLORER SPORT WITH 24,040 MILES ON IT. I AM SCHEDULED FOR A THIRD BREAK JOB ON THIS SUV. I PERSONALLY THINK IT IS CRAZY THAT A VEHICLE WITH THAT LOW OF MILEAGE HAS THIS MANY PROBLEMS. I AM TAKING THE CAR TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC TO HOPEFULLY REMEDY THE PROBLEM. THE OTHER TWO SERVICES WERE PERFORMED BY FORD DEALERSHIPS. *NLM
