hi all,
I have a Ford explorer 2012 3.5L.
I have read some symptoms regarding a faulty rack and pinion bug my car is showing none...
1)the steering comes back to it's original position after I turn
2)no popping sound when I turn the car
3) the steering is light and I can see the tire move with slightest of steering movement.
However I am getting all sorts of knocking/thumping sound when the car is moving. if I hold the outer tire rod and move it, there is some play and that is why the garage thinks that is the problem.
what concerns me is that every time they remove some part of the suspension to diagnose and fit it back again, the noise disappears but then comes back again after 1 day.. today again they removed the parts to diagnose the Rack and pinion and again all the noise is gone...
