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
