Consumer Description
The electrical power steering control system in my car failed, without which steering at low speeds and especially parking is more difficult. The problem was confirmed and assessed by a dealer during other repairs, but no other parties. When the incident occurred, it failed with no warning at car startup. The next car startup the power steering returned for about 2-3 weeks before going out again for good, again with no obvious warning after a startup. Seems to be the same or a similar issue described in campaign 15V340000 that applies to 2012 Ford Fusions, but evidently my VIN number appears to have been excluded from that recall according to Ford.
