Consumer Description

My daughter was driving her 2010 Ford Escape on the highway and a warning light appeared stating "Power Steering Sensor Fault" and once she stopped she lost the ability to use power steering on the vehicle. The car currently doesn't have power steering and I took it to a Ford Dealership and they wanted to charge just over $2200 to replace the steering column. There was a recall on 2010 Ford Escapes, recall NHTSA 14V284000 Ford 14S05 for this problem on other 2010 Ford Escapes but the car we have the Vin number isn't part of this recall. There are many Ford Escapes built between the years 2008-2010 with this problem. Plus I had a 2008 Ford Escape a few years back with this problem and it was fixed by our local Ford dealership through the recall.
