The 2014 Ford Explorer recently had an electric power steering recall. The average cost to replace the rack and pinion system in a Ford Explorer is typically between $943 and $1,042, with labor costs ranging from $253 to $317 and parts between $700 and $735. Having reliable steering is crucial for safely changing lanes and maneuvering on the road. However, issues may arise over time, such as a stuck steering wheel, pulling to one side, steering fluid leaks, faulty rack mounts, worn strut bearings, and a loose steering pump, all of which can lead to potential disasters for your vehicle.

Yesterday, we experienced a steering failure with power steering fluid leaking everywhere in our newly purchased car. Our local Ford dealer mentioned there is a recall for this issue. We plan to contact Ford today as this situation could have been life-threatening.

To initiate an investigation into the steering mechanisms of the 2014 models, it is necessary to file a complaint with the NHTSA. It is important for Ford to recognize that the issues present in the 2011-2013 models also apply to the 2014 model. Considering that recalls have been issued for the 2015 and 2016 versions, it begs the question as to why the 2014 model has not been included in the recalls.
