PR-AFA Citation 560 XLS+ fatal plunge on video . Aug 13 2014
Have you thought of maintenance installing the steering cables incorrectly? At some point the cables could have derailed from their rolls or even snapped.
An engine failure is unlikely to be the cause for a loss of control or for a pitch down event. The Citation XL/XLS is a very friendly aircraft, even I was able to fly it safely

Accident model based on evidences and careful analysis
Hi,
No!
Look to this model:
1) Unstab app (NDB and using MDA instead of VDP concept)
2) Go around with eng #1 failing (Water or etc.)
3) Out of ECHO1 MAP. A fact (lower and smaller radius left turn)
4) High bank left and corresponding pitch down (Abnormal attitude onset)
5) Over correction (pitch up and RH veering) (LOC onset)
6) Wing stall and subsequent eng #2 stall (Loud bangs and brief fire reported)
7) Pitch down "departing" XLS+ envelope
8) Aerodynamic shadow to STAB/ELEV (No pitch up observed despite high speed)
9) Aileron command (A fact)
10) High energy impact (pitch down in excess of 60 degrees)
Mac
PS
The model was constructed after factual information and "connecting assumptions".
