Consumer Description

THE FIRST TIME MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT WAS WHEN I WAS TURNING ONTO A BUSY INTERSECTION AND WAS ALMOST HIT BY TWO CARS THAT WERE GOING PRETTY FAST. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT TO A NEARBY FORD SERVICE CENTER AND THE FIXED THREE RECALLS: THE THROTTLE BODY, THE POWERTRAIN, AND POWER STEERING. NOT EVEN 8 MONTHS LATER, THOSE SAME THREE ISSUES WENT OUT AGAIN. THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHEN I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70 MPH. I ENDED UP SPINNING AND DAMAGED MY FRONT BUMPER TRYING TO PULL OVER AND BE SAFE.
