| Description of the problem | "power steering assist fault" comes on while backing 2010 mercury milan out of the garage locking my steering and causing the car to hit garage (minor accident, thankful). Upon research i have noticed there has a been a recall for the 2011-2015 mercury milan models but not the 2010. There are numerous complaints of same issue as my vehicle experiencing this problem with the mileage ranging from low to high. This is a very unsafe situation to experience with your family. 2010 milan needs to be added to the 2011-2012 recalls. Dangerous to loose control of your steering while driving, this could be fatal on expressway situations. |
