My 2010 ford fusion had the service power steering light come on while driving down the highway, and then the power steering went out and the service advancetrac came on. I called the dealership and even though my car has two open recalls for airbags and fuel tank, along with an extended one on my throttle body, they can't get my car in until next month. I've tried disconnecting the battery terminals, and replaced…

I was driving 70 mph down the highway and my car just quit running. A few warning lights came on and i pulled over to the shoulder of the road. I was able to restart the car and merged onto the highway; the car quickly died again. I had the car towed home and was unable to start the car again since the anti-theft lock light was on. I had the car towed to a dealership and i am waiting to hear back from them.

I don't seem to understand how this issue has not been an official recall yet directed by the nhtsa. Out of 3806 (as of dec 20 2018) there are 1024 strictly related to steering. I as well as so many other ford owners have fallen victim to the failing of the electronic power steering assist. Went out to go to work last night and power steering assist fault" continues to display, restarting vehicle does not seem to…

My car had "power steering assist fault" come up on the dashboard after i started it in a parking lot and the lack of power steering made the car unable to drive safely. This warning had come on several times over the past few months, but the owner's manual for the ford fusion 2010 says to turn off the car for 10 seconds and restart if this happens (pgs 213-15). This had solved the problem the past few times. The…
