Description of the problem	2004 ford freestar sel - ~23000 miles on the vehicle i have been hearing an intermittent squealing noise coming from the right front wheel. I brought the car to the dealer for regular maintenance, but they said nothing about the noise. The noise continued to get worse. I searched on the internet for people with similar problems and found out about a recall for the front hub, rotor, and wheel bearing (id #52707). My vin was not included in the recall notice. When i brought the car back to the dealer, they said that the front right wheel hub and bearing were the cause and need to be replaced. This will cost me $420. I told them about the recall notice and said there was nothing they could do if the car was not on the original recall list. I called ford and they said they would only pay for the issue is nhtsa included my vin in the recall list. I am writing this complaint to see if my vehicle can be included in the recall list.
