The steering in my Escape started to become tighter and tighter as I would turn and so, I scheduled a maintenance check through my local Ford service dept. Much to my surprise, they found that the rack and pinion had gone bad. I have 40,000 miles on my vehicle and as you know this exceeds the typical 3yr/36,000 mile warranty. My truck is 13 months old. This is a major component of the vehicle and could have caused me to have an accident.
