NHTSA Complaint #11230684 — 2015 FORD EXPLORER

I BOUGHT THE CAR USED IN APRIL 2019, IT ONLY HAS 25,000 MILES. I WAS DRIVING WITH MY TODDLER WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN I COULD NOT STEER THE VEHICLE EASILY AND WARNING LIGHTS STARTED GOING OFF AFTER I LOST POWER STEERING. THE LIGHTS WERE POWER ASSIST FAULT AND SOMETHING ABOUT ADVANCETRACK SYSTEM IN WHICH I NOTICED THAT MY FOUR WHEEL DRIVE CAPABILITY WAS NOT WORKING. I WAS ON A CITY STREET SO I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT. ONCE I LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES AND STARTED UP, EVERYTHING WAS ALRIGHT. THIS WAS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME, I WAS JUST EXITING OFF THE HIGHWAY WHEN I LOST POWER STEERING AND WARNING CAME ON BUT IT ONLY OCCURRED FOR A MINUTE AND EVERYTHING WAS BACK TO NORMAL. THIS IS A SAFETY RISK AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT LONG DISTANCE. OTHER THAN THIS I LOVE THIS VEHICLE!
