NHTSA Complaint #11252846 — 2016 FORD EXPLORER

I WAS PARKED, WHEN A LOUD SOUND CAME FROM THE MOTOR AREA OF MY 2016 FORD EXPLORER. THE SERVICE ADVANCE TRACK AND THE STEERING FAILURE LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE RACK AND PINION IS LEAKING, EVAN THAT ONLY HAD 32, 000 MILES IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY BECAUSE EXPIRES A FEW MONTHS AGO, AND IS GOING TO COST $2,230.00 FOR THE PARTS AND LABOR. THE DAY BEFORE I WAS WITH ALL MY FAMILY HAVING FUN AND DRIVING AROUND, I'M THINKING IF THIS PART BREAKS WHILE WE WAS AT INTERSTATE 70, THAT THE SPEED LIMITS IS 70MPH, AND YOU LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, IT WILL BE A REALLY BAD OR FATAL ACCIDENT. THERE BEING A LOT OF REPORTS WITH THIS ISSUE. WHAT FORD AND THE NHTSA ARE WAITING TO TAKE ACCION, THAT MORE INCIDENT OCURRED OR PEOPLE DIED TO DO A RECALL. LIKE THEY ARE DOING WITH THE AIR BAGS AFTER A MANY PEOPLE DIED. PLEASE TAKE ACTION TODAY, DON'T WAIT UNTIL IS TO LATE.
