Description of the problem | The power steering assist failed resulting in dangerous driving with minimal steering. There is a recall for this on most vehicles of the same year, make, and mode, however ford is refusing to honor the recall on my specific vehicle, even though the same issue arose. I was driving on a street when it happened, and it gave out suddenly with no warning. |
