2015 FORD FOCUS ELECTRIC Steering Problems

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK JUST GOTTEN OFF THE FREEWAY IN THE CITY OF CERRITOS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN A WARNING CAME ON AND SAID STEERING LOSS STOP SAFELY AND THEN IT LOCKED UP AND PULLED TO THE RIGHT. I ALMOST HIT THE CAR NEXT TO ME BUT WAS LUCKY. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD USING ALL MY STRENGTH BUT IT WAS TERRIFYING AND SOMEONE COULD HAVE REALLY BEEN INJURED OR WORSE. I HAVE ONLY HAD IT 2 AND 1/2 YEARS

RACK AND PINION EPAS FAILED--GRADUALLY AT FIRST, THEN COMPLETELY. THIS PART HAS BEEN RECALLED IN OTHER FORD MODELS BUT NOT IN MINE--YET. THE REPAIR BILL WAS $2800. IT HAPPENED WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF 3-YR WARRANTY EXPIRATION AND I FILED A CLAIM WITH FORD. THEY REDUCED THE COST BY $2000, BUT I STILL HAVE AN $800 BILL TO PAY TODAY, AS THE CAR HAS BEEN FIXED. I FEEL IT SHOULD BE ALL COVERED UNDER A RECALL EXEMPTION. SHOP IS SERRAMONTE FORD, 999 SERRAMONTE BLVD, COLMA, CA 94014. REPAIN # 227 328.

MY INITIAL COMPLAINT WAS POSTED ON 06/19/2015, THE DAY OF MY TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE. MISTAKENLY, I FILED THE COMPLAINT UNDER THE REGULAR FOCUS MODEL AND NOT THE ELECTRIC. LAST FRIDAY, I JUST CHARGED MY CAR TO 100% AT WORK. LATER, I WAS DRIVING HOME AT 40 MPH WITH NO PROBLEMS UNTIL I WAS ABOUT TO HIT MY FIRST RIGHT TURN. I ATTEMPTED TO TURN ON THE STREET LEADING ME TO THE 210 W FREEWAY. WHILE TURNING RIGHT, THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED AND FROZE UP AND DID NOT ALLOW ME TO MAKE A FULL TURN. I WAS FORCED TO MAKE THE WIDEST TURN POSSIBLE, THANKFULLY THERE WERE NO CARS OR IT COULD'VE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE CAR STRAIGHTENED OUT SMOOTHLY AGAIN. HOWEVER, BECAUSE I AM 8 1/2 MONTHS PREGNANT I FELT SCARED TO GET ON THE FREEWAY. AFTER WHAT JUST HAPPENED I DIDN'T WANT TO RISK MY OR MY UNBORN CHILD'S...
