1 Power Steering Pump problem

Failure Date: 08/14/2013

Steering problem NHTSA # 13v385000, Ford recall13s08. "notchy, stiff or binding" steering, as in Ford's recall letter to dealers. Covered were 2005 -2011 models for recall. Solution: "replace lower immediate shaft, etc. Al". My marquis is a 2002 purchased in IL. Reputable local mechanic advised; power steering, fluid, pump, & belt o. K. , usually would not create above. Doesn't appear to be a local mechanic fix. (special tools sent to Ford. . . ) this model car / steering has not changed since 2002 & before. If found to be the problem at Ford dealership, is there any recourse? when these cases are decided, do you & others fundamentally state that if a vehicle that is over "x" years old is exempt from recall regardless of original identified defect or severity of outcome?.
