Consumer Description

STEERING: I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH MY STEERING, WE HAVE HAD THE RACK AND PINION REPLACED, STEERING PUMP AND STEERING BELT. MY PROBLEM IS STILL NOT FIXED. THE STEERING IS REALLY HARD AND THEN LIKES TO BREAK LOOSE AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO WRECK SEVERAL TIMES. THERE IS A RECALL ON NEWER MODEL FORD FLEXS. I THINK THEY ALL NEED TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED!
