jcl78 said:This is all I could find:
"Nearly 200,000 Taurus sedans from the 2010 to 2014 model year are being recalled for corrosion issues. In areas where road salt is used, corrosion can cause the license plate lamp to short circuit, overheat and possibly cause a fire. Ford knows of 18 fires that started because of this issue, one of which a customer put out by hand, suffering an injury in the process."

I was able to save it but I thought it was strange that the right side was bone dry.

Spartn27 said:About time they finally admitted to the electronic power steering issue, this cost me $1500. The internal relay on my steering gear ended up being corroded which causes them to short/malfunction and will make you lose power-steering. This happens on the most of their cars with the electronic power steering, more so on the Explorer/Flex Ecoboost.
When you get your recall letter, there should be a section about what to do in your situation.Spartn27 said:About time they finally admitted to the electronic power steering issue, this cost me $1500.

kinder said:How did it cost you $1500? Out of warranty at the time? Maybe you can petition Ford for a partial/ full refund?

Call your dealer where the work was done and request a refund.
Once rebate is processed, take unexpected cash and buy toys for your car!
