description: WHEN I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN OFF A HIGHWAY RAMP, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP & THEN SNAPPED BACK & SPRAINED MY WRIST. I DON'T CARE ABOUT MY WRIST,BUT I DO CARE ABOUT THE DEFECTIVE LOWER STEERING SHAFT THAT WAS ENGINEERED WRONG TO START WITH & YOU MADE FORD ISSUE A RECALL (BECAUSE OF THE DEFECT)IN ALL THERE MID SIZED & HIGHEND CARS ALONG WITH LINCOLN & MERCURY MODELS BECAUSE IT'S A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM. WHAT YOU DIDN'T DO IS, ORDER A RECALL FOR ALL FORDS THAT HAS THE SAME LOWER STEERING SHAFT! WHY? YOU SAY IT'S NOT A SAFETY PROBLEM IN THE F-150, WHY? JUST BECAUSE IT'S A TRUCK OR FORD PAID YOU OFF NOT TO ISSUE THE RECALL FOR THE F-150'S?? IF IT'S A DEFECTED PART IN THERE CARS,IT'S THE SAME PART PUT IN F-150'S,MADE BY THE SAME CO.. I PD $38,000 FOR A TRUCK THAT HAS THE SAME DEFECTED PART YOU MADE THEM ISSUE A RECALL. SOME LINCOLNS & MERCURY CARS RECALLED ARE HEAVIER THAN MY F-150,BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER TO YOU. I ALMOST CRASHED THREW THE GUARD RAIL & IF I DID, I WOULD BE DEAD!! I WANT TO KNOW HOW YOUR AGENCY EXCLUDED THE F-150 IN THE RECALL?? ARE YOU PEOPLE ENGINEERS? HOW IN THE WORLD COULD YOU EXCLUDE ANY VEHICLE IN THE RECALL THAT HAS THE SAME DEFECTED PART IN IT? PLEASE E-MAIL ME THE REASON WHY A DEFECTED PART FORD MADE,IS ONLY A SAFETY ISSUE IN CARS, BUT NOT THE F-150"S THAT HAS THE SAME LOWER STEERING SHAFT'S. I REALLY WANT TO KNOW. THINK OF THIS, A MERCURY SABLE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM I HAD WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE MERCURY WOULD HIT THE GUARD RAIL & STOP, MY F-150 WOU
