Recalls and investigations
Suspension, front, wheel bearingJun 3, 2015
The Timken Company (Timken) is recalling certain aftermarket front wheel bearings, part number 510072, sold from January 22, 2015, to May 21, 2015, to be used as service parts on 2001-2012 Ford Escape, 2001-2011 Mazda Tribute, and 2005-2011 Mercury Mariner vehicles. The affected wheel bearings have incorrect dimensions of a 42mm bore, 76mm outer dimension, and 39mm width, instead of a 42mm bore, 78mm outer dimension and a 45mm width.
Use of an incorrectly sized wheel bearing can adversely affect the braking and steering of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Timken has begun notifying distributors who will offer purchasers replacement wheel bearings, free of charge. The recall began on May 21, 2015. Owners may contact Timken customer service at 1-866-984-6536.

Steering, electric power assist systemMay 29, 2014
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2008-2011 Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner vehicles manufactured August 18, 2006, through September 11, 2010. The affected vehicles have a steering torque sensor that may not be able to properly detect driver steering input. As a result, the system could remove the Electric Power Steering (EPS) assist.
If power steering assist is lost, greater driver effort would be required to steer the vehicle at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power steering control module (PSCM) and the instrument cluster module, free of charge. If a vehicle shows a history of a loss of the torque sensor signal or fault codes relating to the PSCM when the vehicle is brought in for the recall remedy, the affected components will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on July 18, 2014. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-800-392-3673. Ford's number for this recall is 14S05.

I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND MADE A LEFT TURN, WHILE STEERING TURNING BACK TO THE RIGHT IT FELT AS THOUGH IT WANTED TO LOCK BUT EVENTUALLY BROKE AND WENT TO NORMAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED 4 DIFFERENT TIMES SINCE VEHICLE PURCHASED. TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP IN FREDERICKSBURG, VA, THEY TOLD ME AFTER TESTING, I NEEDED A STEERING COLUMN EPAS AT THE TUNE OF $1400. THEY SAID YOU COULD NOT JUST REPLACE THE EPAS PART ON MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE AND IT WAS NOT ONE OF THE ONES RECALLED EARLIER. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE AND CHECKING WITH ANOTHER DEALER, I HAVE LEARNED THAT THE EPAS PART CAN BE REPLACED BUT APPARENTLY FORD WILL NOT LET THEIR SERVICE TECHS JUST REPLACE THAT PART. THIS IS NOT RIGHT, I HAVE PAID A LOT FOR THIS VEHICLE, NEW, AND THE REPLACEMENT OF THAT STEERING IS MORE THAN I RECEIVE A MONTH FROM DISABILITY. THANKFULLY I HAVE NOT BEEN IN A SITUATION OF AN ACCIDENT. WHAT CAN WE AS CONSUMERS DO TO DEMAND THAT FORD TAKE OWNERSHIP AND HELP OUT THEIR LOYAL CUSTOMERS? I AM LOOSING MORE AND MORE FAITH IN FORD (3 OUT OF MY 4) SERVICE VISITS SHOWED THAT THE SERVICE TECH PUT A CHECK MARK THAT THE POWER STEERING FLUID WAS OK?????? ANOTHER PROBLEM, IN FEB. 2018 SERVICE VISIT, THEY SAID MY TREAD WAS IN THE YELLOW. BACK AGAIN FOR SERVICE IN AUG. 2018, SHOWED TREAD IN GREEN??? THIS IS WHY I WENT BACK FOR THIS CHECK UP ON ALL THINGS AT NOT CHARGE AFTER SPEAKING TO THE SERVICE MANAGER. IF I HAD NOT TAKEN IT BACK FOR A REVISIT, I PROBABLY WOULD NOT HAVE FOUND OUT ABOUT THE STEERING! I WILL SAY MY LAST VISIT WAS THE BEST I HAVE HAD TO DATE, THANKS TO THE SERVICE TECH. STILL I AM NOT SURE I WOULD EVERY PURCHASE ANOTHER FORD!

SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING/TURNING, THE CAR WOULD DING AND A VERY BRIEF MESSAGE WOULD FLASH ON THE CONSOLE. COULDN'T READ IT FAST ENOUGH BEFORE IT WENT AWAY. TODAY GOT IN AFTER WORK AND THE POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT MESSAGE CAME ON AND THERE IS NO POWER STEERING. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS FOR THIS MAKE AND MODEL YEAR, BUT APPARENTLY NOT FOR EVERY VEHICLE. SEARCHING ONLINE FOUND MULTIPLE OTHER PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM IN 2009 ESCAPES (OR OTHER YEARS INCLUDED IN THAT RECALL) THAT WERE NOT COVERED IN THE RECALL. WONDERING IF THE RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX AND NOT SOMETHING THAT IS VERY LIKELY TO GO OUT OTHERWISE.
