| Description of the problem | Vehicle is experiencing random "power steering assist" faults. When this happens, the power steering is lost on the vehicle. I have researched where ford has recalled several trucks in the same year-model range as this vehicle for the same reason due to faulty part. Is it possible they simply missed this vehicle or does the recall need to be extended to cover this vehicle as well? |
