Description of the problem	Complete power assist steering failure: while driving along a city street, i experienced complete loss of power steering, causing the driver (myself) to virtually lose all directional control.. I could only control the vehicle steering and bring it to a stop by using extreme physical strength to manually steer the vehicle.. If my wife had been driving at the time of occurrence she "would not have been able to manually steer the vehicle" and, would have almost certainly lost steering control... I had the vehicle towed to a ford dealership, who diagnosed that the steering rack needed to be replaced.... Upon researching this fault, i have found clear evidence that this is a known problem with the 2013 ford f150 and subsequent years... Ford issued a recall on the 2014 f150 for this fault, but not for 2013 vehicles... Loss of power assist steering while driving this size of vehicle is an extremely dangerous condition to find yourself in and, may have already been the cause of accidents!! My opinion is that ford are very much aware of this steering fault, due to the fact that they issued a partial recall and, they want all old steering racks that are replaced, sent back to them! I requested the old steering rack that was being replaced, be returned to me... However, ford indicated a $400 core charge would be billed to me to for keeping the old part! Ford needs to issue a broader recall regarding this fault on f150's before more people are injured or killed! This is a serious safety issue.
