Description of the problem | Adaptive steering fault - service required! While driving down the road, steering wheel changed ratio, became extremely light and disconnected from wheels. Steering wheel also changed to a 45 degree right angle while driving straight down the road. This is a safety issue! Escalated to ford, stating i lost confidence in driving this car. Didn't want to be a statistic with my kids when this happens again when going down the highway at 70mph! Extremely hazardous thankfully my kids were not in the car when this happened. |
