problem #1

Aug 292006

F-350 Diesel

  • Automatic transmission
  • 92,000 miles
: the contact stated the steering wheel became very difficult to turn while backing up. The vehicle was towed to the dealership who determined the power steering hose came loose, which caused the vehicle to leak power steering fluid and lose all power steering. The dealership informed the contact the diesel engine vibration caused the rubber seal that held the power steering hose on to come loose. Updated 9/18/2006 -
