Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 65MPH WHEN I WENT TO SWITCH LANES AND NOTICED MY STEERING WAS TIGHT AND HARD TO TURN TOWARD THE LEFT. MY VEHICLE THEN CONTINUED TO HAVE THIS ISSUE WITH STEERING BEING TIGHT TO THE POINT I WAS WORRIED ABOUT GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. I STOPPED DRIVING MY CAR AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH FORD DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND ACTUALLY ONE THAT I FOUND OUT MY SISTER HAD WITH HER 2012 EXPLORER WITH THE STEERING ASSEMBLY OR COLUMN. HER SAME EXACT ISSUE THOUGH WAS COVERED UNDER A RECALL AND MINE IS NOT.
