NHTSA Complaint #11220796 — 2012 FORD FOCUS

DROVE MY CAR TO A DESTINATION AND WHEN LEAVING, I GOT IN MY CAR, STARTED THE ENGINE AND WHEN TRYING TO LEAVE, MY STEERING WAS EXTREMELY ALTERED. TRIED TO GO IN REVERSE THINKING IT MAY BE IN A RUT. SAME ISSUE, STEERING WAS NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE. TURNED CAR OFF TO EXPLORE UNDER THE HOOD. NO POWER STEERING FLUID UNDER THE HOOD. AFTER SEARCHING THE OWNERS MANUEL AND LOOKING ON LINE SITTING IN 100 DEGREE HEAT I ATTEMPTED AGAIN AND STEERING WAS FINE. IT HAS SINCE HAPPENED AGAIN WITHIN A WEEKS TIME AND ALL I CAN THINK OF IS WHAT HAPPENS IF IT LOOSES POWER STEERING WHILE I'M ON THE FREEWAY, OR IF I HAVE MY GRAND BABIES WITH, OR IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN? WHAT IF.... PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY LOST THEIR LIFE. WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE FOR FORD TO DO THE RIGHT THING.
