Consumer Description

THE STEERING SHAFT HAS TWO U JOINTS, THE ONE CLOSEST TO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD SIEZED UP MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER, VERY DANGEROUS WHEN PULLING A CAMPER AT HIGHWAY SPEED TO SAY THE LEASE. I HAD IT FIXED BY A FORD MECHANIC (PART WAS 300 BUCKS ALONE) AND HE SAID IT IS VERY COMMON ON THEM. I NOTICED A RECALL ON THE CROWN VICTORIAS FOR THE SAME ISSUE ON THE POLICE MODELS. WHY IS THERE NOT RECALL ON THE F 150?
