Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND LOST POWER STEERING ASSISTANCE. WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND DISPLAY NOTED THAT FAULT. PARKED THE CAR, WHEN I RESTARTED IT THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT HAD MY WIFE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR AND ENTERED A SHAPE BENT IN THE ROAD. FORTUNATELY I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 40 MPH ON A FAIRLY STRAIGHT ROAD WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURRED. I CHECKED AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN NOTED ON THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE, HOWEVER IT APPEARS OTHER 2011 FORDS INCLUDING FUSIONS HAVE BEEN RECALLED. I WANT THIS TO BE ON RECORD IN THE EVENT THERE WOULD BE AN ACCIDENT DUE TO FORD'S RELUCTANCE TO TAKE ACTION OF THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM. PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT ABLE TO CHECK THE BOX FOR RECEIVING RECALL ALERTS, BUT WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE THEM. THANK YOU
