| Description of the problem | Periodically getting "power steering assist fault" and the epas electric power steering quits working. Apparently there was a recall for this exact issue, but it only included 2011-2012 lincoln mkt/mks and ford flex when it should have also included 2010 models. So far it has only happened when the vehicle is first started (stationary) and we've been able to get it to work again by shutting off the vehicle and restarting. |
