Consumer Description
THE "RACK AND STEERING GEAR IS BROKEN" WHICH IS THE SAME THING AS A RECALL FOR THIS CAR, BUT APPARENTLY DOESN'T APPLY TO MY VIN NUMBER AND THEREFORE IS NOT COVERED. I TOOK IT TO A NON FORD REPAIR CENTER AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT IS WAS THE SAME ISSUE AS STATED IN THE RECALL FOR OTHER 2012 FORD FUSIONS, BUT I HAVE TO PAY ALMOST 2,000 TO GET IT FIXED ON MY OWN. I SPENT 107 DOLLARS GETTING IT LOOKED AT FIRST BY THE OTHER PARTY SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS NOT GIVEN THE RECALL AND I WASN'T INFORMED OF THE ISSUE BEFORE IT HAPPENED AND THEN STILL HAD TO PAY FOR FORD TO FIX IT.
