Description of the problem	While driving, i heard a strange noise coming from the steering column. Once i reached my destination and returned to my car and started it, the power steering assist warning light came on. I began to pull off, the vehicle would not steer, and i had to have my car towed home. The next day i called ford to explained what happened and was told it would cost around $2,000 to fix. I googled it and found out the steering assist had been recalled for that year make and model. I then called the number associated with the recall and keyed in the code related to the make and model. A few moments later, a rep came on the line and asked for my vin. He informed me that there was a recall in 2015 or 16 can't remember the exact year, but unfortunately, the recall was vin specific, and my vehicle was not on that list. I found this news to be very disturbing, dangerous, and irresponsible for ford not to replace or repair this faulty part in all of the 2014 models, not just those with a specific vin. What is it going to take for them to correct this; prayerfully not someone's life?
