The contact owns a 2016 Ford Explorer. While driving 65 mph, the traction control indicator illuminated and the steering seized. The contact pulled the vehicle over and attempted to turn off and restart the vehicle, but the steering was locked. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who discovered that the entire front rack and pinion system needed to be replaced. The total cost, including towing, was $2,300. Ford of hibbing (2627 E beltline, hibbing, mn 55746, (218) 262-3881) stated there were no recalls and the warranty recently expired; therefore, they would not assist with the repair cost. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 31,060.
