Problems with 2016 Ford Fusion STEERING

When i was leasing this vehicle the power steering system assault light started coming on then piwer steering stopped working and i had no power steering at all. my transmission also failed. ford dealer refused to fix it because i was over the lease mileage. i was sent home with the car without power steering and in need of transmission replacement. the mechanic told me to pay the 3.000 to fix it because i was risking my life. the manager said there was nothing he could do under the lease warranty. but it was a lease and i did not have the money for repairs. i later discovered 5 recalls for the car. i was only notified of two, steering and transmission. this was in the past few months when i no longer have the car. . accidents occurred before the steering completely failed. both involved the car moving without accelerating. it was on a town street at a light both times. i was behind another car both times as well. my car insurance has gone up because of these accidents and i have severe back pain from driving all those months with no power steering. but i had no choice as a single mother working many different locations requiring daily travel. also, i have to look back for the correct date of when i brought the car for service and was refused repairs by the ford dealership mechanic department where i leased it, even though the issues were car defects. therefore, i entered january of 2017, since it was either during 2016 or beginning of 2017 that these issues surfaced. also, one of these accidents where the car moved without accelerating did mot involve a police report, only the exchange of insurance information. the car speed is not saving in the box below. i was coming to a stop in one accident and was stopped completely during another. this is my best recall of the information.

After coming to a stop on our highway ramp. i had intended to make a right turn. before i took my foot off the brake my car accelerated causing my back tires to lock and screech. i was unable to turn the steering wheel toward the right so that i could remain on the two lane road. my car pulled to the left and i slammed into the medium. my car came to a complete stop but was still running. i turned off the medium and continued home. shortly after i heard thumping noise followed by louder thumping and my entire dash board lit except for the check engine light and the wrench. i pulled my car to the side to find i had two blown front tires, my bumper was broken and my driver side back tire went flat waiting on a tow. all my years driving i have never experienced an unintentional acceleration of a vehicle and pray that myself or granddaughter never have to again. *tr

Went to go to lunch today and cranked the car up and it started and no lights came on or radio. started to back out and there was no steering. turned off the car and restarted it and the radio and lights came on but servicetrac light still was on dash. called ford and they said it was a steering fault but to still drive it and bring it in on wednesday that it was safe to drive. um i am not an idiot but that does not seem safe to drive if the steering goes out. light went off after i left work and all is working for now.

Takata recall, my steering wheel seems to be loose at the linkage by the pedals where the swivel knuckle is causing my wheel to be off center so while driving to go straight i had to turn it to the right to center it and it only has seemed to get worse even after having and alignment and tired roatated and properly aired up and correct tired and axles that came on the car stock from ford. there has been play in the wheel since day one of buying it, dealer ship said just give it time to break in but it's gotten worse and now has cost me chiropractor bills to adjust me back since i have to hold the wheel cock-eyed while moving to drive straight.

The steering assist, electric power steering, had a "fault" and the car would not start/crank. before this happened the steering was strange, it was like there were string winds when driving on the highway, the car would sway side to side.

Takata recall. power steering went out upon morning start in driveway; car was stationary. servicetrac light illuminated. turned ignition off and restarted.no power steering. waiting for tow to dealer. car has 20,000 miles.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 ford fusion. within a short period of time of owning the vehicle, the contact stated that it went into a transportation mode while driving that led to a drastic reduction in speed. the vehicle was towed to the following dealers: lasco ford (2525 owen rd, fenton, mi 48430, (888) 486-1708) and royal oak ford (27550 woodward ave, royal oak, mi 48067, (248) 548-4100). one of the dealers diagnosed that the steering and parking brake failed. a loaner vehicle was provided for a short period of time, but the failures were not corrected for the contact to drive her vehicle. lasco ford replaced the throttle body, motor assembly, and a gasket; however, the failure continued. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 1.
