Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING OUT OF STATE I HAD 2 WARNINGS THAT CAME ON MY DASH. 1- TIRE TRACTION SERVICE 2- POWER STEERING SERVICE. I TURNED AROUND MADE IT TO A RENTAL TO CONTINUE MY TRIP. WENT TO GET IT WITH MY HUSBAND & THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING, SIGNAL LIGHT WOULDN'T WORK. BROUGHT IT TO ONE FORD DEALERSHIP & THEY WANTED A LOT OF MONEY TO FIX SOMETHING. PICKED IT UP & NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT, DROVE BEAUTIFULLY. BROUGHT IT TO ANOTHER FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT & THEY COULDN'T FIND NOTHING MECHANICALLY WRONG. THEY PUT IT ON THE MACHINE I BELIEVE 3 TIMES & SAW NOTHING. I HAD TO TAKE ANOTHER TRIP OUT OF STATE & AFTER DRIVING 100 MILES I WAS FORCED TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT BECAUSE I LOST ALL POWER AGAIN. I DON'T EVEN HAVE 70,000 MILES YET ON IT. CAN YOU HELP ME OUT WITH THIS PROBLEM. THERE WERE RECALLS ON STEERING BUT MINE WAS 2 MONTHS AWAY FROM RECALL DATE. I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP.
