Sorry, I thought your original post said you bought a 2014.. The Ford letter is for a 2013.

I would be calling Ford customer service asking why a Ford dealer thinks that the supercharger has anything to do with the powersteering.. Thats BS.
Was this truck sold new as a Roush or was the kit added later?

Funny story, i purchased it used with 34,000 miles on it. Bought it online so i wasn't able to actually look at it, i had just been rear ended in my 2011 @ 76 mph and i was at a dead stop (for a wreck ahead of me). So i was in a bit of a hurry to get into another Raptor and this one was being advertised as a 2014 with the Phase 2 Roush (i was super excited to find it, and the price was perfect). I didn't even find out it was a 2013 until this letter came in the mail with my VIN, never even crossed my mind that it wasn't a 2014. My local ford dealer isn't very keen on repairing vehicles that were not purchased there, when i had the first PS issue, they were going to make me wait 5 weeks before they would even look at it because "our customers come first" is what i was told. So i drove 2hrs to the next Ford dealer to get the work done in 2 days.

The previous owner was the original owner and had the truck sent to Roush with 22 miles on it. I have the Roush S/N that's on the door, ive emailed Roush 3 times with no replies and called twice, but i am offshore with horrible cell service and keep getting dropped while on hold. He did give me the receipt from Roush showing the installed parts and total with the mileage.

Ok, you have Roush's tune flashed on the PCM and you shouldn't need to worry about that recall.
They won't do anything for you anyway, must likely.

There are quite a few Roush Raptor owners on this forum that went with a JDM tune and are much happier.
You may want to call JDM for doing any upgrades and getting a better tune.

As far as the heat exchanger fans, they help in getting air to the coolers behind the HE.
Probably wouldn't have cooked the Power steering so much.

Noticed you were in LA.. Look up Stanghi Performance. He does Raptor tunes as well. Pretty sure he got the base tune off JDM
