THERE WAS NO HANGER AT THE FRONT AS THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS ACTUALLY MADE ON THE PIPE THAT FASTENED TO THE FLANGE. APPARENTLY, THE SUPPORT HANGER WAS QUITE A DISTANCE BACK AS THE PIPE  COULD POSSIBLY DROP DOWN IF IT WERE TO COME LOOSE AT THE FRONT. THE CONSUMER DISCOVERED HE COULD EASILY SLIP THE PIPE BACK INTO THE FLANGE. IT WAS AS IF THE PIPE HAD NEVER BEEN FLARED. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MUFFLER SHOP TO HAVE THE PIPE WELDED, BUT THE PART WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR A WELD NOR WAS THERE ROOM TO DO SO. THE REPAIRMAN WAS ONLY ABLE TO TACK WELD IT. THE CONSUMER WENT TO ANOTHER SHOP AND WAS INFORMED FORD WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND THERE WAS A REPAIR KIT AVAILABLE.*JB","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2007","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"TAURUS","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
