Consumer Description

THE STEERING MECHANISM WOULD LOCK UP, UNABLE TO START VEHICLE. BETWEEN PUTTING IT BETWEEN PARK AND DRIVE IT WOULD START BY SHIFTING IT. LOCAL FORD DEALERS WOULD STATE NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. NOW, I NEED TO REPLACE THE BATTERY EVERY THREE MONTHS. NOW IT WON'T EVEN START. STARTER IS OKAY BECAUSE WHEN I TURN IT OVER IT CLICKS. IT'S NOT THE FX PACKAGE, A 2002 FORD RANGER. *JB
