Consumer Description

POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT MESSAGE APPEARED AND I COULD NOT TURN MY STEERING WHEEL. I HAD JUST STARTED THE CAR IN MY GARAGE AND AS I TRIED TO BACK OUT OF THE GARAGE I COULD NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AT ALL SO I PULLED BACK IN THE GARAGE AND CALLED BY DAD. WHEN HE ARRIVED ABOUT 20 MINUTES LATER HE STARTED IT AND IT WORKED JUST FINE. IT LOOKS LIKE A PROBLEM WITH THE EPAS AND I AM WONDERING WHY THE 2013 FUSIONS WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED.
