ABOUT HALF THE TIME, WHEN WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE TURNED ON, THEY WILL NOT SHUT OFF. I HAVEN'T EXPERIENCED THEM TURNING ON SUDDENLY AS I DRIVE. THEY STAY ON WHEN I TURN THEM ON. THE HEADLIGHTS STAY ON AS WELL. EVEN WHEN TURNING LIGHTS OFF, THE WIPERS REMAIN. THIS CAUSES THEM TO BE ON WHILE IT'S DRY RESULTING IN A DRAGGING WIPE AND NOISE. IT CAN ALSO CAUSE A MINOR SMUDGE. I'VE HAD THE CAR SINCE JUNE 2016 AND THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN ISSUE. TO TURN THEM ON CAUSES HESITATION AS THEY MAY NOT TURN OFF ANY TIME SOON. I'VE RESTARTED THE CAR A FEW TIMES AND MY EXPERIENCE IS TO WAIT IT OUT AFTER A COUPLE DAYS. A BRIEF LOOK ONLINE SHOWS VARIOUS FORD CARS AND TRUCKS HAVE THIS ISSUE.
DRIVING ABOUT 35 MPH ON A CITY STREET WHEN WARNING CAME UP THAT SAID POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILURE, AND ADVANCE TRAC NEEDS SERVICE, ALSO TURN SIGNALS WILL NOT STAY ON UNLESS HOLDING LEVER. POWER STEERING WENT OUT VERY HARD TO CONTROL CAR. TOOK TO MECHANIC HAD TO HAVE COMPLETE RACK AND PINION REPLACED ONLY 55,200 MILES ON CAR SAME PROBLEM FROM OTHER YEAR MODELS THAT ARE RECALLED BUT NOT FOR THIS MODEL YEAR.
