It's inexcusable for a clock spring to go out on a pickup that has less than 40k on the odometer. Ford's are great vehicles, but this little electrical issue, which comes at no fault of my own, will cost me between $300. 00 to $400. 00. Mind you, this clock spring went out in June 2019, and please explain to me how (I) broke something within the steering wheel and behind the air bag? I don't recall if I was stationary, in motion, on a city street, or on the highway. I do know one day I tried to honk my horn and it didn't work. I tried to reset my trip odometer another day and it didn't work. I tried to set me cruise control-no go. I tried to control my stereo/hands free blue tooth, nope. It took me digging on the net to find out what would cause a horn and the above mentioned issues to suddenly stop working, but interestingly still works with the anti-theft engaged. If I need to change my driving habits by not steering my truck, Ford should have let me know. Btw, I had a Ford escape before this truck, and when trading it in the dealership described my instrument cluster as a christmas tree, but with all those electrical issues, I guess the clock spring never went out.
