Complaint Summary
STEERING
Owner Narrative
WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY , I HEARD SOME BELL NOISE COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD AND GLANCED DOWN TO SEE THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT". I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE STEERING WAS NO LONGER "POWER STEERING". I SLOWED DOWN AND PUT MY FLASHERS ON AND SLOWLY DROVE HOME. WHILE AT HOME, I RESEARCHED AND FOUND THAT FORD HAD A RECALL BACK IN 2015 (15S18) FOR THIS SAME YEAR CAR FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. FOR SOME REASON, MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED AT THE SAME FACILITY AND WITHIN 30 DAYS PRIOR TO THE BEGINNING RECALL DATE.
