Consumer Description

I recently bought this car and one morning I get up and the power steering assist fault indicator warning light and a chime sound was flashing in my dashboard. I have family and a busy life style which is putting them and myself in danger. I have a appointment with Timpton Ford on the 22nd of June 2021 for this issue. Also not even 3 days later my car would not stay cranked due to the fuel pump I would turn the key over it would start and a few seconds later it would die. I need to know if my car can be fixed.
