2014 Ford Flex

Without warning, the vehicle's power steering stopped working in an intersection while turning. The hazard lights came on automatically and I used my full body strength to steer the car out of the intersection. Inspection showed a computer module failure within the steering rack. Because the computer module is built into the steering rack, the whole steering rack needed to be replaced. This was a critical repair and cost over $3500.

I TOOK MY FORD FLEX IN FOR A RECALL FOR THE REAR TOE LINKS ON 1/6/21 AT 55,000 MILES SINCE THE RECALL WAS OPEN FOR MY CAR. EVEN THOUGH I WAS NOT EXPERIENCING ANY ISSUES. WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON MAY 1, THE REAR WOULD SWAY ON ME AND I DIDN'T FEEL SAFE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP THAT DID THE RECALL AND THEY FOUND THAT THE TOE LINKS WERE FAULTY. THAT HAD JUST BEEN REPLACED DUE TO THE RECALL. NOT SURE IF THE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THE RECALL ARE FAILING FOR EVERYONE.
