Cost my buddy around $3500 to get his 150 fixed when it went out.

Not sure. All that the tsb indicates is that steering will lock up. It’s the high end Rapter and one other version. These broncos have been one giant headache for ford and the poor buyers. Overlanders at the overlander expo in Utah were complaining about all kinds of quality issues with their broncos. A few were going back to Jeep. I’m actually surprised how tough Jeeps have been.

Yep I went rebuilt cuz the warrenty was way way longer 10 yrs and it was 1/2 the cost of new . Both trucks at around 150k ..1 just shit the bed like right now . The other was sporadically working . Made for a interesting drive home from WY

I had to replace the steering rack in my Quigley because of a worn bushing. It was a custom Quigley piece that had a list of $2800. Thankfully Quigley stepped up and paid for it. They allowed me to install it myself. I do not trust dealers.

Most every vehicle made today has gone electric racks. Just replaced a 13 Ram's today. Found a rebuilt for 1544 while a new Fiat one was 2400. Rebuilt has a lifetime warranty Fiat's not so much.

Since I have one, it seems like it's a narrow number of vins.

Not for one of those 343 that paid $80K + and now sit without out a vehicle for how ever long it takes for parts and an available tech to instal it. This is more of the bleeding Ford is experiencing from warranty claims.

Ford seems to be the king of the recalls. I saw a number for the costs last year and it’s in the billions. Mostly junk chinesium from their suppliers causing these issues.

I can't imagine how pissed off I would be over something like that....

My parents edge ST blew a tranny with low miles it was around 20k. It got fixed under warranty and traded in immediately after for a genesis. Life long ford family always had at least one I don’t think they’ll be going back anytime soon that ordeal soured them on ford. I don’t think it’s just ford though I hear lots of people having issues with rona era cars.
