NHTSA Complaint #11495030 — 2011 FORD FUSION

I have a 2011 ford fushion hybrid it has approximately 116,000 miles. I was driving on mountain roads. The power steering went out without warning. There was no warning sign. The power steering stopped working and the vehicle became difficult to steer even at minimal speed. The vehicle was unable to be repaired and had to be transported on a trailer home. After notifying a dealer, I was told of a customer satisfaction program recall that would service the Steering components however it had a 10 year or 150,000 miles expiration. My vehicle was more than 10 years from original purchase date and therefore, ford would not cover this under warranty. The vehicle remains unrepaired and inoperable due to this known unsafe issue.
