Consumer Description

I TURNED MY CAR ON TO BACK OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND HAD NO POWER STEERING AND ON MY DASH IT SAID POWER STEERING FAULT. THIS IS A FORD LIMITED 2010 WITH ECOBOOST ENGINE AND PARKING ASSIST. THIS PART HAS BEEN RECALLED ON EVERY OTHER FORD BUT MY YEAR. IT IS UNDRIVABLE BECAUSE THE POWERSTEERING COULD GONOUT AT ANYTIME. THE PART FROM FORD IS 2643 PLUS LABOR. I ONLY HAD 119,000 MILES ON MY FORD.
