Tie rod ends on 07 gt 77,000 miles??????
Went to get the 07 gt inspected, they are telling me it needs both tie rod ends replaced. Has 77,000 miles any one else have this problem?

Not unusual. Like Glenn said pretty easy to do. Just try not to let the whole thing spin when trying to get the old one off and get an alignment after you finish

I put boots on mine before they got dirt in them...they wear out because the boots disintegrate...they had a similar problem with valvestems rotting from 05-08.

pics there of mine. sadly the big fat lower control arm bushing is crap rubber too, it had cracks in the rubber at a year old on all three of our cars.

letting bean counters dictate content that assists post-warranty is not smart... still Fords name on the car whether in warranty or not.
things that shoulnt be 'features': break off spark plugs, non-ozone resistant rubber boots, no grease fittings, no seam sealer on hood undersides...all this stuff leaves only two possibilities:
planned obsolescence or poor engineering/quality control
