Description of the problem	Steering wheel locked while taking a left turn at a traffic light controlled intersection. Was able to stop car with brake before colliding with gas station curb/signpost. Of concern is that this car is part of recall 13s08, i was notified last fall. Went to a dealer promptly for a safety inspection on 11/18/13. Was told vehicle was safe to drive. Waited for dealer to contact me when parts became available. Never got a call, but got a follow-up letter from lincoln. While driving to dealer for recall repair, the incident happened before arriving at the dealer. Something is wrong with the safety inspection process. I was told the car was safe to drive. A less experienced driver would have crashed the car. At highway speed, there is no way any driver could have prevented a serious crash.
