Ford Fusion Steering Safety Report | Oct 10, 2013
Reported on Oct 10, 2013
| WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 45 MPH THE CAR CHIMED AND POSTED A WARNING ON THE DISPLAY. IT TOLD ME TO CHECK THE POWER STEERING. THE POWER STEERING WAS STILL WORKING SO I CONTINUED DRIVING. ONCE I CAME UPON A STOP LIGHT I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF TO TRY AND CLEAR THE CODE. WHEN I TURNED THE VEHICLE BACK ON IT CHIMED AGAIN AND THEN POSTED A SERVICE STEERING NOW WARNING. I PROCEEDED FROM THE TRAFFIC LIGHT AND MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN ONTO ANOTHER ROAD. THE POWER STEERING WAS GONE AND THE VEHICLE WAS VERY HARD TO TURN. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY CLAIM THE PROBLEM IS A STEERING GEAR AND WILL COST $1700 TO REPLACE IT. *TR | |
