NHTSA Complaint #11138844 — 2016 FORD FUSION

WHEN I STARTED THE CAR MULTIPLE ALARMS SOUNDED AND THE DISPLAY SHOWED THE FOLLOWING ERRORS: STEERING ASSIST FAULT SERVICE REQUIRED, SERVICE ADVANCETRAC, PRE-COLLISSION ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE, HILL START ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE. THE CAR HAS 13514.1 MILES ON THE ODOMETER AT THE TIME OF THIS OCCURRENCE. THE CAR HAD BEEN DRIVEN LESS THAN 10 MILES EARLIER IN THE DAY BUT HAD BEEN PARKED WITH THE ENGINE OFF FOR NEARLY 8 HOURS. I DID NOT ATTEMPT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE DIFFICULT, IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE, CHORE OF TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTED IT SEVERAL TIMES ATTEMPTING TO SEE IF THE FAULTS WOULD CLEAR ON THEIR OWN. NO LUCK.
