Power steering assist fault, and power steering EPS system failed while driving! Was replaced by Ford in 2015 and has already locked up while driving! Tire pressure sensor constantly stays on even after replacement.
The contact owns a 2011 Ford Explorer. The contact stated that while the windshield wipers were in the on position, the wipers went off the vehicle and had to be pushed back into place. There was an unknown yellow warning light illuminated. The contact stated that while making a turn, the driver's and passenger's front wheels detached on two occasions. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the vehicle received an unstated repair. There was an abnormal sound while driving at various speeds. While shifting gear, the vehicle jumped. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer however, the result of the diagnostic test was unknown. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 104,000.

I WAS GETTING READY TO TURN INTO THE PARKING LOT .. WHEN 2 SETS OF LIGHTS CAME ON ..THE SYSTEM INDICATORS CAME UP .. ONE INDICATING THE POWER STEERING ERROR AND ANOTHER INDICATING THE POWER STEERING LOCKED ... THEN THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME VERY HARD TO TURN .. MAKING SO VERY HARD TO TURN INTO A PARKING SPACE .. SOMEONE HAD TO PUSH ME INTO THE PARKING LOT OUT OF THE WAY .. LATER TO CALL FORD DEALERSHIP DOESN'T WANT TO ASSIST ME WITH THIS PROBLEM ... I DRIVE A 2011 FORD EXPLORER .. THE CAR IS 2 YEARS OLD . I REVIEWED OTHER CONCERNS OF THIS MATTER .. IS THERE A RECALL ... *TR
I WAS TRAVELING AT 40 MPH ON A BUSY CITY STREET WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN I HEARD A WARNING BING SOUND AND SAW THE POWER STEERING FAULT AND ALL TERRAIN MANAGEMENT FAILURE WARNINGS ON MY INSTRUMENT PANEL. LOST TOTAL ABILITY TO STEER THE VEHICLE AND HAD TO PUT ON EMERGENCY LIGHTS, STOP ON SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND ON (HOPING THAT IT WOULD RESET AND RESOLVE THE ISSUE) AND DOING THIS CLEARED THE WARNINGS AND I WAS ABLE TO STEER AGAIN. HOWEVER, TWO DAYS LATER THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE IN A PARKING LOT AND BEFORE STARTING TO BACK OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE. ONCE AGAIN TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND ON AGAIN RESET THE WARNING AND REGAINED STEERING ABILITY AGAIN. *TR
