Description of the problem	The steering is very dangerous and will cause an accident. There is no centering the wheel, it constantly drifts back and forth left and right, on it's own with flat straight road and perfect straight line of sight. The steering is too sensitive, if i move the steering wheel just a slight amount it over corrects and continues to moves the car. The drive must constantly course correct or i will veer off the road right/left or hit another car in either lane, the problem is multiplied several times over when traveling at highway speeds. Searching the internet i see several other complaints from 2014 focus owners and am quite shocked this issue has not been escalated and fixed by ford, the new electric steering is not working and a safety hazard to any driver. I had the car in the mathews ford collision shop to repair a hit to the front end from a deer, and reported the steering issue. They acted like they had no idea what i was reporting and recommended a front end alignment. I told them they needed to drive the car and would feel and experience the problem. I picked the car up last week and they said the steering computer was reset and re-calibrated, and the front end alignment was done. As soon as i left and was driving it was actually worse than before and when i traveled on the highway 2 days later it was very pronounced with very little wind that day. I went back to mathews today and had one of their estimators drive the car with me in it and he absolutely agreed and said the car drifted left and right on its own, like the old fashioned cars that run at amusement parks. They are supposed to contact me once they talk to the repair shop and then i started researching on the internet and was shocked that this is a known problem, so decided to file this complaint. This car was manufactured february 2014 and currently has only 10,000 miles.
