Minivan recall grows as victim’s family speaks out

Sean Bowman was driving with a classmate to community college when his Ford Windstar’s rear axle cracked in half, sending the minivan careening into a building and killing him, his family says. One week later, the family says, a safety recall notice from Ford arrived in the mail. It said the 2001 Windstar’s axle should be checked out because it could corrode and break.
