2007 Acura TL steering complaints

Filed Dec 8, 2011 · Steering · 63,030 miles · OH

I was at the dealership to get my car service and found out that my power steering hose is leaking which in 2004 -2008 acura tl recall but since I have 2007 acura tl type s it is not under recall. Well it seems like my hose deteriorated and got worn out after 63,000 miles and now there is a leak which could potential cause major damage and lead to a fire. Dealer is telling me its not under recall when it happens to be the exact same hose pipe.
