Consumer Description
I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH 59000 MILES ON IT USED SO IN THE COURSE OF 10000 MILES I'VE HAD THIS PERSISTENT PROBLEM HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND AN ALERT SOUNDED AND LIGHTED UP SAYING "ADVANCETRAC" AND "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT" EVERYTHING I'VE RESEARCHED HAS INDICATED ALOT OF WORK AND MONEY SHOVED INTO THIS VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE. THERE'S SO MANY COMPLAINTS I'VE SEEN WITH THIS ONE PROBLEM THAT IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. IT'S INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS, IT'S LOCKED UP ON AN OFF RAMP MULTIPLE ROADWAYS AND MY DRIVEWAY. I HAVE A 1 YEAR OLD BABY IN THE CAR AT ALL TIMES AS WELL. GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED FORD. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO FORK OVER TWO GRAND IN A BRAND NEW CAR BECAUSE OF AN ISSUE THIS BIG. MY WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED LESS THEN A YEAR AGO AND AS SOON AS IT DID I HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS. *TR
