CD-player and steering rack problem

[alsyr44]

Hey guys. I searched a little and was having trouble finding some concrete info.....

Was there any official recalls or TSB's for CD's getting stuck in the Mach 460 when ejecting?

Also...I don't know exactly what the problem is, but when the car is parked and turned on and I turned the wheel to the left and to the right there is a loud creaking noise. Was there any reacalls or TSB's for this?

The car is passed warrenty so I dont know if Ford will fix it or not if it was a simple TSB.

What are some things you guys did to fix these things?

Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot of the help.

Hahaha! I thought I was the only one with that problem. Seems it only happens when the car is turned off, and I just want a cd. I carry some tweezers in the center console for this little predicament. Glad im not the only one

Yeah I have heard the CD changer thing is a common problem, just didnt know if there are ways to fix it...especially through Ford.

Thanks for the reply.

Does anyone know anything about the noise when turing the wheel to the left and right when the car is on sitting in a parking lot?

The best way I can describe the noise is a creaking.
