Consumer Description

POWER STEERING HAS GONE OUT IN MY EXPLORER WITH ONLY 62K MILES. HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IT IS THE STEERING RACK AND PINION THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP GOING 35 MPH IN NORMAL TRAFFIC AND I ALMOST HIT ONCOMING TRAFFIC. HUNDREDS OR EVEN THOUSANDS OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM! FORD IS LUCKY THAT MY TWO SMALL CHILDREN WERE NOT IN THE CAR WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THERE REALLY NEEDS TO BE REVIEW ON THESE CARS AND A RECALL BE MADE BEFORE SOMEONE DIES!
