Consumer Description

The steering column has failed causing steering wheel separation from the steering column. The issue happened simply driving down the road almost causing a loss of control of the vehicle. Vehicle has been at a local dealership currently and they are stating there is no active recall for this model year vehicle and ford is not responsible for repairs due to being outside of my warranty by approx. 2k miles. It is open knowledge that the same issue is happening on newer model year vehicles with a recall in effect.
