Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM FAILED JERKING THE CAR TO THE RIGHT. THIS CAUSED ME TO GRAZE THE CURB. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE BEFORE JUMPING THE CURB AND HITTING A TREE. I LIMPED THE CAR HOME WITHOUT POWER STEERING. I HAVE SEEN THE SAFETY RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUES FOR 2011 AND UP FORD TAURUS. SINCE MY PARTICULAR MODEL, SHO IS THE ONLY VEHICLE IN THE TAURUS THAT INCORPORATES THIS SYSTEM IT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL THIS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THIS OCCURRING. IT IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE WITH 2011 AND UP RECALLS THAT HAS HAPPENED TO MY SHO AND NEVER INFORMED.
