Description of the problem | While driving the vehicle it lost power steering. Warning lights came on stating power steering assist fault service advance trac terrain management system fault this is not new to ford explorers apparently there was a recall 2011-2014. My vehicle is a 2015. It is a shame that ford or natsa would allow this risk to continue. I encourage you to recall any vehicles in all years to prevent accidents. My vehicle has been in the shop for a week already and when they told me three other ford explorers were fixed last week for the same problem i gasped that this is not part of a recall. |
