| Description of the problem | My 2010 mercury milan power steering just went out for no reason. I was taking my husband to the airport and the first indicator was service power steering and when it came on and it just got tough to turn. Two days later another indicator service power steering now came on. I have researched and found out that there are plenty of people that have experience the same thing i have. They sent out a recall for the 2011s but we as owners of a 2010 are experiencing the same thing. Ford needs to sent out a recall for this problem because it can cause some serious wrecks and even death luckily i was able to drive home okay. Now i can barely turn the steering wheel so i am not driving this car. |
