Consumer Description

THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING 3 TIME WITHIN 3 MONTH PERIOD. THE CAR IS ALWAYS STATIONARY WHEN IT HAPPENS. WHEN I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT THE POWER STEERING CAME BACK ON. THIS TIME THE POWER STEERING HAS BEEN OFF FOR 7 DAYS. IT ALWAYS HAS THE POWER STEERING FAILURE ASSIST SIGN AND THE HAZARD CAR SIGN ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I BROUGHT IT AND THEIR MACHINE SAID CODE U-3000-96 CONTROL MODULE INTERNAL FAIL. THEY RECOMMENDED I TAKE IT TO THE FORD CO. I ALSO CALLED THE FORD MANUFACTURE 1-800 # AND SHE TOLD ME IT WAS RECALLED AND FIXED IN 8/2015 AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT GETTING FIXED. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE SAME FORD DEALER THAT DID THE RECALL SERVICE. TODAY, THEY TOLD ME THE WHOLE POWER STEERING SYSTEM HAS TO BE REPLACED. $1600 PLUS REPAIR. DO I HAVE ANY OPTIONS OF GETTING MY MONEY BACK FROM THE FORD MANUFACTURE?
