Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The steering in my escape started to become tighter and tighter as i would turn and so, i scheduled a maintenance check through my local ford service dept. much to my surprise, they found that the rack and pinion had gone bad. i have 40,000 miles on my vehicle and as you know this exceeds the typical 3yr/36,000 mile warranty. my truck is 13 months old. this is a major component of the vehicle and could have caused me to have an accident. *tr |
