NHTSA Complaint #11329176 — 2015 FORD EXPLORER

FRONT END POPPING NOISE WAS NOTICED AFTER 50,000 MILES. WAS TOLD TO DISREGARD, IT WAS NORMAL. AT 67,000 NOISE BECAME LOUDER, SENSATION IN STEERING WHEEL FELT, LOSS OF STEERING MOMENTARILY. THIS HAPPENS WHEN SITTING STILL, WHILE DRIVING AND ESPECIALLY WHILE MAKING SHARP TURNS. FORD JUST QUOTED $2100 TO REPLACE. I'VE SEEN MANY MORE COMPLAINTS RELATED TO THIS. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND A RISK FOR ANYONE WHO DRIVES THE VEHICLE. WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL ISSUED YET? *TR
