| Description of the problem | 2014 f150 with 61,000 miles intermittently loses power steering. Had it at the dealership twice until the condition happened. I was told that the steering shaft is failing and must be replaced (approx. Cost $1900). Doing research i found that there was a recall on the 2014 f150 (nhtsa id 14v316000) in which the steering assist was incorrectly assembled and must be replaced. Also, the recall only includes trucks manufactured between may 26 and june 19, i'm told my truck was not manufactured during that time and i am responsible for the repair. |
