Consumer Description

YESTERDAY I STOPPED IN A PARKING LOT WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY STEERING SEEMED TO GO OUT AS IF MY ENGINE HAD STALLED (DIDN'T). IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION UNTIL TODAY WHEN I ENTERED A ROUNDABOUT WHEN THE STEERING STARTED TO LOSE THE POWER FEATURE IF ONLY FOR A FEW MOMENTS. I CONSULTED A FORD DEALER AND SAW NO RECALLS ON THIS PROBLEM. I AM HAVING THE CAR CHECKED ON 3/14/16 FOR MY TRANSMISSION SHUDDER AND WILL ATTEMPT TO GET THIS LOOKED AT THEN. IT IS TROUBLING TO KNOW THAT THIS MAY HAPPEN AT HIGH SPEED. IN THE ROUNDABOUT I SEEMED TO HAVE A MANUAL STEERING FEATURE, BUT AS I STATED THE ROUNDABOUT SPEED WAS ABOUT 15 MPH.
