Description of the problem | Purchased 2010 ford escape xlt on 12-12-09. On monday, 12-14-09 power steering went out and light for stabilizer came on and would not shut off. Car was hardly drivable and extremely hard to steer. Dealership stated the power steering was newly computerized this year and did not run on belt and pistons anymore. Dealership replaced steering column and returned car on friday 12-18-09. Today is 1-6-10 and my power steering went out again tonight. Will be taking vehicle to dealership tomorrow. Will post second complaint for the 2nd incident once resolved. |
