POWER TRAIN
I WAS DRIVING AT 65+ MPH ON EXPRESSWAY - VEHICLE STOPPED ACCELERATING AND A VIOLENT SHAKING OF THE VEHICLE OCCURRED FORCING ME OFF THE HIGHWAY - AT THIS TIME NOTICE AN IMAGE OF A "WRENCH" LIT UP ON DASH -- I WAS ABLE TO GET VEHICLE TO THE DEALER - NOT WORRIED DUE TO I STILL HAD 2000 MILES LEFT ON WARRANTY, ONLY TO BE TOLD THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. MY QUESTION IS THIS IS HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD UNDER NO QUESTIONS BE A CHARGE TO THE CONSUMER. I WAS CHARGED 309.20 TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY MOTOR AND ASSEMBLY. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH MANY OF THE FORD VEHICLES. ATTACHED IS THE INVOICE THAT I HAD TO PAY. I HAVE TRIED TO OBTAIN THE ZONE REP FOR MY AREA AND I AM HAVING TROUBLE GETTING THIS INFO FROM MY DEALER. I AM STILL INVESTIGATING AS TO HOW TO OBTAIN THIS INFO AS I BELIEVE SOMEONE IN HIGHER POSITION THEN DEALER NEEDS TO BE AWARE.

STRUCTURE:BODY
THE PASSENGER-SIDE, LIFTGATE GLASS HINGE ON THE REAR WINDOW BROKE DUE TO CORROSION ON A BOLT. THE WINDOW IS NOW LOOSE AND SAGGING ON THAT SIDE. WE TOOK IT TO A REPAIR SHOP TODAY, AND THE MECHANIC NOTICED THAT THE HINGE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE IN ALSO VERY CORRODED, AND SAID IT WILL LIKELY BREAK SOON. (THERE ARE WHITE STREAKS FROM THE CORROSION RUNNING DOWN THE WINDOW.) THE WINDOW WOULD BE AT RISK OF FALLING OUT. IF THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY, IT COULD PRESENT A VERY REAL DANGER TO CARS FOLLOWING US. I LOOKED ONLINE AFTER WE RETURNED FROM THE SHOP, AND FOUND COMMENTS FROM HUNDREDS OF OTHER MARINER AND ESCAPE OWNERS THAT HAD EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. MANY SAID THAT THEY HAD CONTACTED THEIR DEALERS TO SEE IF THIS PROBLEM WAS COVERED BY A RECALL. WHEN THEY DISCOVERED THAT IT WASN'T, A GREAT NUMBER OF THEM EITHER MADE THE REPAIR THEMSELVES, OR WENT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, SINCE THE DEALERS WERE CHARGING UP TO $850 TO MAKE THIS REPAIR. SO, MANY OF THESE REPAIRS WEREN'T MADE BY DEALERS WHERE THEY COULD BE TRACKED FOR A POSSIBLE RECALL.

STEERING
A MALFUNCTION OF THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING, I CANT STEER MY VEHICLE.IT IS DIFFICULT TO STEER AND CONTROL THE VEHICLE. I WAS DRIVING AND THE STEERING START WOBBLING AND MAKING NOISE VIBRATING AND THE STEERING GO REAL STIFF. I CALLED THE RECALL DEPARTMENT THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A RECALL ON THE TORQUE SENSOR OR PSCM JULY 2014 TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER TO GET APPROVAL TO LET THEM KNOW , I DID THEY CHECKED IT OUT SAID IT WAS THE TORQUE SENSOR, CALLED FORD TO GET APPROVAL BECAUSE IT WAS ON THE RECALL LIST, WAS DENIED. I DON'T UNDERSTAND YOU SAID IF THIS PROBLEM SHOWS A HISTORY LOSS OF THE TORQUE SENSOR SIGNAL OR FAIL CODES RELATING TO THE PSCM WHEN I BROUGHT IN FOR THE RECALL REMEDY, THE AFFECTED COMPONENTS WILL BE REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. YOU TOLD ME THE RECALL WAS JULY 2014 AND AT THAT TIME YOU RESET THE PSCM AND CLUSTER MODULE. THAT DIDNOT FIX THE PROBLEM ONLY PUT A BANDAID ON THE REAL PROBLEM. I DID NOT OWN MY VEHICLE IN 2014. THIS IS HAPPENING AGAIN. AFTER THE FIRST RECALL. ANOTHER RECALL. WHY WONT YOU FIX IT MY ARMS SHOULDER NECK AND HEAD ARE INJURED BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT FIX WHAT IS A PART THAT CONSISTANTLY BREAK DOWN OR MALFUNCTION THAT'S HAPPENING OVER AND OVER. IT SHOULD BE SET FOR ANOTHER RECALL. THIS COULD NOT BE HAPPENING ONLY TO ME. DRIVING ON CITY STREETS IN MOTION WITH BAD STEERING ISSUES.
