Motormitch Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Has any one had a problem with the steering on there ford focus . I have a 61 plate 1.6 td esate and when i start it in the mornings my steering is imposible to turn . And today a warning came up saying( Assisted steering malfunction ' need service .) I turned of and re started and it was ok but i no it will happen tomorrow. I took it to fords and they want £80 plus vat to plug it in ( rip off ) they did say that on my model the elec' steering pump is on the rack and it would be £1000.00 pound plus vat and labour if i needed it . Or it could be a modual . Has this happend to anyone out there . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave1987 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 You're the first I've heard of to have that problem. How many miles? I'd be tempted to put in a claim to ford for that, even though you're out of warranty they may still contribute towards the cost.

iantt Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 it will be the steering rack as the module is part of the rack assy, ive seen one with the same problem. ford wont want to know regardless of mileage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
