2011 Ford Crown Victoria. Consumer writes in regards to steering column shaft recall notice. The dealer informed the consumer, the vehicle would be inspected. However, the consumer stated according to the recall notice, the part would be replaced, as well as inspecting otter parts. The service representative responded again, by saying, first there would be an inspection to determine if the part needed to be replaced. The consumer stated he did not want to waste a day, just for an inspection. So he decided to make an appointment with another establishment, to have to part replaced.
