The 2014 Ford Escape has a recall for its power steering system. It is recommended to change the power steering fluid every 75,000 miles. In addition to replacing fluids, you may notice noises coming from the steering components. A loose bearing can be an annoying sound, while a faulty bearing can create a more concerning noise. Having reliable steering is crucial for safe driving maneuvers like changing lanes. However, issues may arise over time, such as a loose steering pump causing potential disaster for your vehicle. Problems may also occur with bad strut bearings, a faulty rack mount, steering fluid leaks, veering to one side, or a stuck steering wheel.

    My wife's 2014 Escape experienced a power steering issue last night. I rushed to her aid when she called, finding the steering extremely hard to turn. After driving it for a short distance and stopping, I put the car in park and turned it off. Upon restarting the engine, the steering returned to normal. I'm relieved she wasn't on the highway. I'm planning to take the car to the dealership to ensure this problem doesn't occur again.

    Whoever spread misinformation about 2014 Ford Escapes not being subject to a recall was mistaken. If you're looking for recall information, visit the Ford website, enter your model and year, and it will show any recalls. Regarding a previous inquiry, the recall information for Ford Escapes did not involve issues with power steering.

    From what I gather, both the 2013 and 2014 models were recalled for the power steering control module, but surprisingly, the 2015 model has not been recalled yet, despite having the same faulty module. It's absolutely absurd.
