NHTSA Complaint #11194817 — 2015 FORD FOCUS

WHILE TRYING TO MAKE A SLIGHT LEFT TURN FROM CURB SIDE PARKING TO GET ON THE ROAD, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING AND SINCE I WAS NOT ABLE TO MAKE IT TURN TO THE RIGHT I WAS HIT IN THE FRONT BY A CAR COMING FROM BEHIND. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESETARTED. IN ADDITION WHEN THE COPS ARRIVED TO THE SCENE OF COLLISION THEY REQUESTED TO SEE IF THE CAR CAN BE MOVED AND WHEN I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DISPLAYED REVERSED AND THE VEHICLE MOVED BACKWARDS INSTEAD OF FORWARD. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO COOKS AUTO REBUILD LAKE CITY SEATTLE. THE OFFICER WHO REPORTED TO THE SCENE OF COLLISION ISSUED ME A MOVING VIOLATION TICKET VIA MAIL WITH REASON OF WRONG TURN FROM PARK NOT KNOWING THE REAL STEERING WHEEL MECHANICAL FAILURE. I PAID THE TICKET TO AVOID LATE FEES AND FINES.
