Consumer Description

THE 2013 TAURUS HAS RIGHT AT 60,000 MILES ON IT AND IS MAINTAINED REGULARLY AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I'VE NEVER BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL FOR THE STEERING EPAS SYSTEM FAILING, BUT IT HAPPENED LAST WEEK. WITHOUT NOTICE OR WARNING, AS WE BACKED OUT OF THE GARAGE, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER STEERING CAPABILITY AND TURNING IT OFF AND RESTARTING DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. AS I PULLED BACK IN THE STABILITY CONTROL WARNING LIGHT CAME ON INDICATING FAILURE OF THAT SYSTEM AS WELL.
