Please remember that you are talking about a nearly 10 year old truck needing the steering rack replacement.

If we are talking about the power steering connector/hose recall, then it's a whole different story. MB can't seem to be able to figure out how to get that right. Even the modified connectors seem to be failing.

Good luck with your rack replacement.

Thanks pcy. I have owned many vehicles and NEVER had to replace something like this. I had a 1995 Chevy ZR2 S-10 that I went to hell and back in 190,000 miles and did not have to replace something like this. Just bad luck I guess. The ML will be going in tomorrow to start her surgery. lol Hopefully nothing else will come up.
