NHTSA Complaint #11322177 — 2014 FORD EXPLORER

I OWN A 2014 FORD EXPLORER HAD A LOSS OF ELECTRIC POWER STEERING ASSIST RECENTLY. ALSO THE TRACTION CONTROL, TERRAIN MANAGEMENT WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE TURN SIGNALS WERE NOT FUNCTIONING. THIS SAME ISSUE HAS OCCURRED ON 2011-2013 AND 2015-2017 FORD EXPLORERS WHICH THERE WAS A RECALL BUT NO RECALL FOR 2014 MODEL. THIS SEEMS VERY ODD.THE COST OF REPAIR WAS $2,100. I FILED A COMPLAINT TO FORD FOR REIMBURSEMENT BUT THEY DENIED IT SINCE IT WASN'T PART OF A RECALL AND PROVIDED NO OTHER EXPLANATION. THE STEERING STARTED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND THE TRACTION CONTROL AND TERRAIN MANAGEMENT LIGHTS CAME ON, AND TURN SIGNAL NOT WORKING. WHEN I FINALLY STOPPED THE STEERING LOSS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND I COULDN'T TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CAR HAS 102,000 MILES.
