Consumer Description

4 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS MY 2011 FORD FUSION SE HAS HAD A POWER STEERING FAILURE. TWICE CAUSING COMPLETE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE CAR AND ANOTHER TWO TIMES TURNED THE CAR INTO THE SIDEWALK WITH PEDESTRIANS IN THE WAY(NO ONE WAS HURT....THIS TIME). WHILE THE CAR IS STILL DRIVABLE THERE IS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FORCE REQUIRED TO STEER THE CAR. SO MUCH SO THAT MY WIFE-NOT A WEAK WOMEN AT ALL WAS NOT ABLE TO STEER THE CAR AND DROVE OFF THE ROAD. EVEN IF YOU ARE ABLE TO STEER THE CAR TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH JUST DRIVE IN A STRAIGHT LINE AS TURNING IS NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS SOON. THIS IS NOT ONLY DANGEROUS FOR THE DRIVER AND PEOPLE IN THE CAR BUT FOR ANYONE AROUND A 2010-2012 FORD FUSION. LIKE A SAID, WE ALMOST STRUCK PEDESTRIANS TWICE. LETS NOT WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO GET HURT OR EVEN KILLED BEFORE ACTION IS TAKEN. *TR
