Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have already put in one complaint on my 1998 ford explorer, but now i got it back a few days ago from the dealer they checked it and found out it has rack and pinion problems already. i have only 24000 miles on it. there is another complaint in here for the same thing. i am worried the steering is going to go out, and i cannot afford to pay $900.00. why is ford not doing anything with these 1998 explorers. *jb
