Consumer Description
WHILE DRIVING THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THE ELECTRONIC STEERING GOES OUT RENDERING THE TRUCK UNABLE TO STEER. AFTER THE TRUCK IS RESTARTED THE LIGHT GOES OUT ONLY TO HAPPEN AGAIN AT SOME POINT. I WAS TOLD THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM BY FORD MECHANICS WITH THE 2011 F-150. I HAVE TALKED TO 4 OTHER OWNERS THAT HAVE THE SAME YEAR TRUCK AND THREE OF THEM HAVE HAD THIS VERY SAME THING HAPPEN, HOW COME FORD HAS NOT BEEN FORCED TO RECALL THESE EFFECTED TRUCKS AND FIX THE DEADLY SITUATION OR AT THE VERY LEAST HAD TO COVER THE REPAIRS AS THESE SYMPTOMS ARISE. THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE RIGHT AFTER A BUMP IN THE ROAD OR WHILE ON A LEFT TURN. IT TAKES SUPER HUMAN STRENGTH TO THEN TRY TO KEEP FROM STRIKING A CAR HEAD ON IN THE LEFT LANE.
