Recall 03V457000: Power Steering Line Inspection

DEFECT: On certain minivans, the power steering low-pressure line may not be fully seated at the rack and pinion steering gear. If this line becomes disconnected, it may create the potential for fluid to come into contact with the exhaust system, which could result in smoke or fire.


REMEDY: Dealers will inspect the power steering low-pressure line to ensure that it is seated properly at the rack and pinion steering gear. The manufacturer has reported that owner notification began November 10, 2003. Owners may contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673.
