Description of the problem | Power steering assist failure is coming on and the steering wheel completely locks. In researching this- several other ford explorers have been recalled due to this. This is a very serious concern - luckily this happened to me while in my driveway- i can not imagine what the outcome would be if i were on the road running 50 mph. |
