Description of the problem	Reversing vehicle as in a parallel parking maneuver with steering locked, service advancetrac warning displayed. Vehicle operated normally but turn signals would not stay on when activated. System automatically reset later after vehicle was shut off and restarted but warning returned during same type of maneuver. Dealer diagnosed code c1963 and c1b00. Steering rack and pinion (aka steering gear) was replaced. Code c1b00 indicates issue with steering angle sensor. The electric power assisted steering (epas) in the f150 has no serviceable parts so when the sensor goes bad, the rack goes bad. Very coincidental that ford recalled 2014 f150s for a similar problem (see nhtsa recaii14v316.)

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
