Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE ALONG WITH THOUSANDS OF OTHERS ARE DRIVING OUR ROADS WITH FAULTY STEERING. THE STEERING WHEEL LITERALLY GETS STUCK & YOU ALMOST KILL PEOPLE. FORD KNOWS THIS & HAS RECALLED SOME MODELS BECAUSE OF IT, BUT NOT ALL MODELS WERE RECALLED DUE TO COSTS. THEY WONT DO ANYTHING THOUGH BECAUSE THE COST IS TOO HIGH TO FIX. I HAD TO PAY 1900 FOR AN ENTIRE NEW STEERING SYSTEM IN MY TRUCK. ON A SIDE NOTE, FORD DEALERS WILL INSPECT & PASS YOUR STATE INSPECTIONS WITH THIS STEERING PROBLEM. "STEERING IS NOT AN INSPECTION ITEM FROM THE STATE"
