Description of the problem | Power steering completely went out without any warning or indicator lights. We were driving to my daughters graduation and was coming around a turn and when it went out we collided with a mailbox luckily no one was injured as we had our 4 month old grandson in the car after we all calmed down we researched the problem and found that all the ford escape from 2008 through 2011 had the same problem with steering and ford has not fixed this because 2014 vehicles are having the same issues at least over 1000 complaints online i have read so far and i am sure there are many more. |
