Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Handling looseness on select Ford Fiesta models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the front left position and confirm the upper mount thread size before installation. Compare the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length to the original strut to ensure proper fitment on the vehicle. After installation, a wheel alignment is recommended to help maintain correct tire wear and steering geometry.
