| Description of the problem | Steering assist failure 2010 mercury milan premier . Started the car then the steering assist failure indicator came on. Fortunately the vehicle was stationary when this occurred. Many vehicles have reported this issue occurring while moving, loosing control. Ford has issued recalls on 2011 but not 2010. Shame on ford and shame on the nhtsa for not requiring ford to recall all vehicles reporting this failure. Towing and repair are now out of pocket probably equalling the value of the vehicle. |
