2010 MERCURY MILAN Steering Problems

Bought this car less then a year ago with 38k miles and just last week after coming back from vacation my power steering system went while on the expressway. The advancetrac warning light came on and then the service power steering now. The steering wheel was impossible to turn and to make matters worse it was snowing out.

The electric power steering has failed again this will make it twice in 18 months the last time it cost 1800 dollars to fix it know that only some of the 2010 Mercury Milans are on a recall list unfortunately mine is not on that list why because it is absurd that I should I have to make this repair for 1800 dollars again you cant safely drive this car it takes everything I have to turn the steering wheel

The contact owns a 2010 Mercury Milan. The contact stated that while driving approximately 30 MPH, the "Service Traction Control" and “Power Steering Sensor” warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that the steering wheel became difficult to turn to the left or the right. The contact was able to drive the vehicle back to the residence. The local dealer was contacted and sent an agent to the residence to drive the vehicle to the dealer. The vehicle was diagnosed, and it was determined that the power steering assist had failed, and the steering gears and rack, and pinion needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was 60,562.

Check engine light is on mechanic says it's a fuel tank issue

I experienced a loss of power steering while driving and a dash display "Service Power Steering Now" and "Service Advancetrac". The messages started just before the failure. The lack of power steering was a risk to everyone as the car could only be turned with significant effort and not respond to quick movement. The dash messages are still on after a restart and the car cannot be driven because of safety. My independent mechanic confirmed the issue and fix to be a bad rack. He noted the rack part number is the same as the 2011 Milan, currently under recall for this issue. However, the 2010 is not included.

started vehicle, "power steering assist fault" message appeared on dash message center, unable to turn steering wheel. Turn car off, waited, turn back on, message appeared again. tried an additional 3 times, same results. Had to leave the car where i was visiting.

My power steering light came on and then immediately the wheel got tight. I was unable to turn the wheel and then eventually the car is un drivable. There is a lot of complaints about this happening to thousands of cars and it is still under investigation. Imagin someone jumps out in front of you and you are stopping and unable to maneuver your car out of the way. By the grace of God I was able to do so. Please advise me when this recall is open.

See attached document for complaint

After turning the car on one morning, an alert displayed on the dash saying "Power Steering Assist Fault" and "Service Advancetrac". I turned the car off, and back on, but the same message appeared. When driving, there is no power steering and it is difficult to turn the steering wheel. The Milan only has 110,000 miles. Ford needs to issue a recall as this is obviously a defect affecting many customers.

Upon starting the vehicle, the steering wheel is firm and very difficult to manouver. It requires a great amount of strenght to just turn. The vehicle was diagnosed by the dealer and by a mechanic and both said there was a problem with the steering wheel.

I have a 2010 Mercury Milan with only 60000 miles on it and the electric power steering went out. It happened while i was driving causing the car to hard right. The part costs $900 and then it has to be programmed at a dealership. I know there was a recall for this but only for the 2011 model. After researching and reading other safety complaints, it's pretty clear that a recall should be done for the 2010 model.

Power steering fault. Steering wheel locks up.

Steering became hard to steer. Power steering assist failure light on and 75 years old hardly could turn wheel. Many 2010 Milan's are having same problem. I cannot afford the repair. I noticed 2011-2012 Milan's are recalled for a fix not 2010??? Please help

Periodically I would receive a a steering assist fault. Now my steering is completely out with the same warning. With the steering assist out the vehicle is very hard to steer and dangerous. There is a recall for 2010 Mariner and other ford vehicles but not the mercury with the same system. Also the 2011 Milan has recalls for this issue but want me to pay thousands to repair my 2010 It’s the same system and parts for this issue

While driving the power steering failed and the qheel wouldn't turn at all. Luckily I was in my neighborhood.

The power assist malfunctioned nearly causing a crash. 2011 model was recalled 2010 was not.

Power Steering Control Module Difficulty steering, loss of control No No No, 10/20/22

I was driving to the store, luckily only going 30mph. Suddenly the power steering stopped working, the message center displayed "service power steering now" and "service advancetrac" along with an illuminated light on the dash. I've looked into the issue and there is no recall for 2010 models. Only 2011. Knowing my way around cars, I've looked into purchasing a new steering rack and installing it but new they are $1000 or more. This issue needs to be resolved with a recall. Things could have gone a lot different if I was on the highway and this happened.

I drove my Mercury Milan to a store a few blocks from my house and when I tried to drive home, I couldn't get the steering to turn. I turned my car off and tried again and same thing. I waited a while longer, tried again, and was able to turn it. I thought it was just a fluke. A couple days later the same thing happened and a message "Power Steering Assist Fault" appeared. My husband and I then took it to our local independent mechanic. He had to replace the steering rack and pinion. He said Ford has a recall for the 2011 Milan for this same problem but not for the 2010. I do quite a bit of interstate driving and am thankful it didn't go out while I was driving at a high rate of speed or it could have been a major safety concern (as it has been for others apparently).

The power steering in my car just randomly started getting really hard to steer while I was driving out of my neighborhood a few days ago. I was turning a corner and it became so hard to steer, I almost got hit by another vehicle coming really fast and I had both of my small children in my car with me. I have researched and see that a 2011 is recalled for this same exact issue but my 2010 is not. I didn’t have any warning lights come on until it started locking up. I’m so upset that this is not an issue that needs to be fixed by a recall. This is so scary for myself and for my children.

I backed out of a parking space in a parking lot and turned the steering wheel left then as I put vehicle into "drive" my steering seemed to lock up and became extremely hard to turn. I kept attempting to turn wheel and suddenly it was easily turned again as normal. While I was driving home the power steering stopped working causing steering wheel to feel as if locked again and almost impossible to turn in any direction. I almost wrecked my vehicle and hit another vehicle on the road way but hit my brakes and continued to aggressively turn the wheel to missed the vehicle in front of me. I heard and felt a pop and then steering wheel was easily turned again. I barely missed the vehicle in front of me but I did hit the curb and a bicycle a pedestrian was holding next to him on sidewalk. He was able to jump out of the way and was fortunately unharmed. I stopped my vehicle and parked immediately. I called my husband and he came to get the vehicle and I drove his home. He had no problems driving vehicle home and power steering was working as normal but once he was close to pulling into the driveway, a warning message on dash read "service power steering now".... there were no warning of this problem what so ever and just suddenly happened. Very dangerous and I have read many many others have had same issue with exact make and model of 2010 mercury milan. Please add this issue with power steering to recall list so others don't get hurt. I hurt my neck & wrist when I hit that curb and bicycle. I also had to pay for bicycle I hit.. A code reader was put onto car the next day and gave codes C-1963 and C-1277 if that helps with the recall. Thank you for your time and concern in this matter and I apologize for any inconvenience.

As I was driving the service power steering now was indicated on the dash and the steering got super tight and almost caused an accident.

The power steering went out while I was driving in a parking lot. I replaced the rack and pinion and it went out again the day after I got it fixed. Warning lights saying fix power steering now and trac control are on. My mechanic can’t figure out why the power steering keeps going out and isn’t sure how to fix it.

Driving and steering fault showed on dash. Steering failed became dangerous to control vehicle.

Prior to incident I had a light come on power steering assist fail I would turn the car off and it would go away and didn’t have any issues. I was on a curvy county road leaving work and I got about a block away from job and going about 45 mph when my car starts ringing and said power steering assist fault and my steering was completely locked up I had to slam my brakes before I went off the road. Very scary I also had another light come on as I was sitting parked saying service advancetrac. Thankfully I wasn’t injured and it happens right before a sharp curve. It’s nearly impossible to turn the wheel. This could have been deadly. I had to get my car towed home. I called the Ford dealer about it and was informed it would need a rack and pinion and reprogramming that could cost me thousands of dollars. After researching the issue this has been a recall on many of the Mercury and fords and for some reason my year model is not included. Very dissatisfied with all the recalls I’ve already had. The purge valve almost got me killed in an intersection and caused my car to seize up in the middle of a busy hwy and would not go, like it wasn’t getting gas. I paid to have it fixed and about 8 months later they recalled it.

My 2010 Mercury Milan power steering fault light comes on, when it's on no power steering. So far it has happen when I turn the car on. I took it to the dealer and they informed me that the electric steering rack has to be replaced because the power steering can go out while I'm driving. I researched and found that the 2011 Mercury Milan had a recall on the above problem. Also the same exact part was used on both model years. Not sure why the 2010 was not included in this recall. Both cars were assembled at Hermosillo, Mexico.

In April of 2014 I was driving down a major highway in Phoenix, AZ when suddenly the power steering on the car failed and I received a warning message from the car. I had taken the vehicle to Earnhardt Ford in Chandler, AZ twice prior to this incident and worked with service advisor Gina prior to this incident because the power steering had also stopped working previously but would start working again a few moments after turning on the ignition so Earnhardt Ford was unable to reproduce the issue. After the power steering failed in April 2014, I drove the car to San tan Ford in the gilbert, az area. After a few days, I was quoted a repair price of $7,000 to replace the steering rack entirely. I was told there was no way to repair individual parts in the rack and the whole thing had to be replaced. I had purchased the vehicle as a certified pre-owned car from Sanderson Ford of Glendale, AZ in October of 2012 with roughly 50,000 miles on it. By the time of the incident in April of 2014, the car had roughly 98,000 miles on it and San Tan Ford refused to repair the car under warranty. When I contacted my salesman who sold me the car at Sanderson, he said I that I should buy a pickup truck instead since that might be more reliable, and that was all he had to say about the situation. I sold the Mercury Milan on April 28 of 2014 and traded it in for another vehicle at Van Chevrolet of Scottsdale, AZ since the repair costs closely matched the value of the Milan even if it didn’t need repairs. In 2015, a recall was announced related to a power steering fault in mercury Milan’s. I strongly believe my vehicle was affected by this recall.

For years I have sporadically gotten a "Power Steering Sensor Fault" displayed when I would start the car. You could barely turn the steering wheel. In searching the Owner's Manual, owners are advised to turn off the ignition, wait briefly then restart the car (how this issue got into the Owner's Manual and could not be addressed and eliminated, I don't understand). This would correct the fault and the power steering would function normally. Fortunately it never happened while driving. In the last week this display was occurring more frequently until on 5/16/21 it would not go away and I could not drive the car. Today, 5/20/21 I got it towed to the local Ford dealer. The situation will probably not be diagnosed until next week. From reading everything on the internet, this is a routine safety concern, and a recall for the control module has been issued on the 2011-2015 Milan models. Unfortunately my car is 2010 and is not included in the recall. Aren't we talking about an identical control module as to those that have been recalled?? Then why wouldn't the NHTSA not be concerned about this very similar safety issue??!! I'm thankful this didn't happed to me while driving!

POWER STEERING HAS FAILED MULTIPLE TIMES ON THE VEHICLE. THE DASHBOARD DISPLAYS 'POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT' AND THE STEERING WHEEL IS LOCKED. THIS OCCURRED BOTH WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. FORTUNATELY I WAS DRIVING IN A SAFE LOCATION EACH TIME, BUT HAD IT BEEN ON A HIGHWAY THIS WOULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE ON 2011 MERCURY MILANS, BUT NOT ON 2010 MODELS.

HE CALLED ME ON THE PHONE AND I INSTRUCTED HIM TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON. AT THAT POINT HE LOST ALL POWER STEERING ON THE CAR. HE IS LUCKY THAT THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY OR IN THE WINTER. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON THE ELECTRONIC STEERING ASSIST. FORD HAS ISSUED RECALLS ON THE 2011 BUT 2010. THE PART FROM THE DEALER IS 1,155 PLUS THE LABOR WILL COST AROUND 2100 DOLLARS. SHAME ON FORD FOR NOT RECALLING THE 2010! SAFETY SHOULD COME FIRST!! I'M FILING THIS REPORT WITH THE NHTSA AS THIS IS A DANGEROUS FAILURE. *TR

OUR 2010 MERCURY MILAN HAS 45,000 MILES. AS WE WERE BACKING OUT OF OUR GARAGE, A POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT MESSAGE DISPLAYED IN THE MESSAGE CENTER, AND ALL POWER STEERING HAD STOPPED. WE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO BE CHECKED, AND THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING MECHANISM HAD TO BE REPLACED. WE LEARNED THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS WITH 2010-2014 MODELS, HOWEVER, THE 2010 MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL ALONG WITH THE 2011 AND NEWER MODELS. WITH ALL OF THE DATA PROVING THAT THE 2010 MERCURY MILANS HAD THE SAME FAULTY POWER STEERING, WE NEED TO KNOW WHY THEY WEREN?T INCLUDED. OUR BILL TO REPAIR THIS WAS $1948.31. WE ARE VERY THANKFUL THAT IT HAPPENED IN THE DRIVEWAY, AND NOT ON THE ROAD WHERE SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED. KNOWING THAT THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL, AND THERE ARE OTHER 2010 MILANS OUT THERE ON THE ROAD WITH THIS ISSUE IS VERY SCARY. PLEASE HIGHLY CONSIDER ADDING THIS TO THE RECALL LIST. WE ALSO FEEL STRONGLY THAT WE ARE ENTITLED TO BE REIMBURSED FOR OUR REPAIR. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

FOR THE THIRD TIME IN 3 YEARS THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT IN MY 2010 MERCURY MILAN. FORD STILL DOESN'T WANT TO ISSUE A RECALL ON IT AND GIVING THE 'UNFORTUNATELY YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR OUT OF POCKET, BUT KEEP YOUR RECEIPT IN CASE A RECALL IS ISSUED' SPEECH. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE TO CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS ISSUE. IT BECOMES REALLY UNSAFE WHILE DRIVING AND HAVING YOUR POWER STEERING GO OUT. STEERING BECOMES VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE. NOT EVERYONE CAN AFFORD A $1,500-$2,000 CAR REPAIR EVERY YEAR. HAD I KNOW THIS WAS GOING TO CONTINUE TO HAPPEN AFTER GETTING IT REPAIRED THE FIRST TIME I WOULD'VE SAVED MONEY AND GOTTEN RID OF IT.

DRIVING HOME FROM CHURCH, THE "SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" INDICATOR CAME ON AND THE STEERING IMMEDIATELY BECAME NEARLY INOPERABLE. I'M THANKFUL THAT THERE WEREN'T MANY PEOPLE ON THE ROAD AT THE TIME. IT WAS BROUGHT TO THE ONLY SERVICE PLACE ON ISLAND THAT CAN DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM, BUT THEY HAVE A 2-3 MONTH WAITING LIST TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. THEY STATED THAT IF THERE WAS A RECALL IN PLACE FOR THE 2010 MERCURY MILAN, THEY COULD DIAGNOSE AND FIX THE VEHICLE. WHY ISN'T THE 2010 MERCURY MILAN INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL - THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF INCIDENTS OF SIMILAR SITUATIONS.

I HAD TO TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTART THE CAR TO GAIN STEERING CONTROL AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED A COUPLE OF TIME. I SPENT APPROXIMATELY $1,500 ON REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE AGAIN IS HAVING THE SAME SAME ALERT AND SAME LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. THERE WAS NOT A RECALL ON THE 2010 MILAN BUT THERE WAS ON 2011 AND OTHER MODELS.

"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.

WHILE DRIVING THE POWER STEERING JUST QUIT AND THE "POWER STEERING FAULT" COMES ON THE DASH. I HAVE READ A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THESE FORD ELECTRIC PS ISSUES AND I AM REALLY CONCERNED AS TO WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED BECAUSE IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN WHEN THE FORD IS OPERATED.

MY 2010 MERCURY MILAN BEGAN TO PULL TO THE RIGHT AFTER ROTATING THE TIRES. THE "SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" INDICATOR CAME ON AND THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A SAFETY ISSUE. I TORE MY ROTATOR CUFF TRYING TO STEER THE CAR. FORD IS NOT RECALLING THE 2010 MODEL EVEN THOUGH THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING COMPONENTS ARE IDENTICAL TO THE 2011 WHICH IS RECALLED. A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR, AND DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY 2011 MERCURY MILAN OWNERS ARE MORE VALUABLE THAN 2010 OWNERS.

MY POWER STEERING ASSIST WARNING AND ADVANCE TRAC SYSTEM FAULT WARNING CAME ON RANDOMLY FOR MONTHS. WHEN THEY WOULD, I'D LOSE POWER STEERING, BUT COULD TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON AND IT WOULD RESET AND WORK FINE. DURING THOSE MONTHS I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES, BUT NOTHING COULD BE FOUND SO THEY WOULD CLEAR THE CODES AND TOLD ME REPEATEDLY IT WAS A SENSOR MISFIRE. I HAD READ REVIEWS OF NUMEROUS 2010 MODELS HAVING THE SAME ISSUES BUT NEVER BEING RECALLED. LAST WEEK MY POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST POWER STEERING COMPLETELY. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT INTO A NEW AUTO REPAIR PLACE WHO DIAGNOSED THE ENTIRE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM AS HAVING MALFUNCTIONED AND HAD TO REPLACE THE RACK AND PINION, COSTING ME OVER $2000. THE 2011-2013 MODELS WERE RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT REASON. THE 2010 SHOULD BE AS WELL. IF I HAD BEEN ON BACKROADS DRIVING FOR MY JOB, WHICH I OFTEN AM, WHEN THIS HAD GONE OUT, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A REAL SAFETY ISSUE.

WITH THE LAST OCCURRENCE, THE CHARGING SYSTEM LIGHT ILLUMINATED ALONG WITH THE ABS LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT. RESTARTED THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES AND COULD NOT STEER AT ALL. PAUSED A FEW MINUTES, RESTARTED THE CAR AND THE STEERING WAS VERY LOOSE AS IF THERE WAS NO STEERING CONTROL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. THERE WAS A RECALL ON MODEL YEAR 2011-2015. NHTSA PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND HOLD THE MANUFACTURER ACCOUNTABLE.

WHILE DRIVING THE POWER STEERING HAS WENT OUT SEVERAL TIMES. AT THE TIME THE DASHBOARD INDICATOR WOULD SAY "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT" AND SHORTLY AFTER THAT SAY "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC". UPON RESEARCH I HAVE NOTICED THERE HAS A BEEN A RECALL FOR THE 2011-2015 MERCURY MILAN MODELS BUT NOT THE 2010. I HAVE FOUND A TON OF OTHERS WITH MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM WITH THE MILEAGE RANGING FROM LOW TO HIGH. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION TO EXPERIENCE WITH YOUR FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE AND HAVE THIS HAPPEN. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THE OTHER MODEL MILIANS RECALLS.

BEFORE I COULD GET A QUARTER OF A MILE DOWN THE ROAD THE SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW MESSAGE APPEARED, WITHIN MINUTES AFTER THAT MY POWER STEERING COMPLETELY LOCKED UP WHILE I WAS DRIVING. HAD TO GET MY CAR TOWED AND THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC SHOP QUOTED ME UPWARDS UP $1250 FOR THE REPAIR. MY CAR HAS ROUGHLY 84,000 MILES ON IT. IF THEY ARE RECALLING THE 2011 MODEL FOR THIS REPAIR THEN OBVIOUSLY THE 2010 SHOULD BE RECALLED AS WELL IF IT HAS THE SAME MALFUNCTIONS, PARTS AND ASSEMBLIES. THIS IS MY ONLY SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION AND I CAN'T AFFORD SUCH A COSTLY REPAIR.

THIS IS THE 3RD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. PREVIOUS TIMES I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AS THE 2011 MODEL HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE. THEY HAVE QUOTED ME UPWARDS OF $2000 TO REPAIR. WHEN I DECLINED, THE COMPUTER WAS RESET AND IT WORKED AGAIN. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE TRACTION CONTROL SERVICE CAME ON.

AS I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A BUSY FREEWAY, MY STEERING WHEEL JUST LOCKED UP MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME TO TURN. I STRUGGLED AND MANAGED TO PULL ONTO THE SHOULDER. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND TURNED IT ON A FEW TIMES BUT IT DID NOT CHANGE ANYTHING. THE FAULT MESSAGE "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT" AND "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC" DID NOT GO AWAY. I DROVE THE CAR TO THE CLOSEST MECHANIC SHOP. THE MECHANIC MENTIONED TO ME THAT I HAVE TO REPLACE THE STEERING RACK AND PINION AND PERFORM A WHEEL ALIGNMENT. HE ALSO MENTIONED THAT I MAY HAVE TO REPROGRAM THE POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE. HE GAVE ME A FAT ESTIMATE OF $2100. APPARENTLY THIS SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN RECALLED BY FORD ON THEIR 2011-13 MODELS BUT NOT ON 2010. I WAS SURPRISED TO READ THAT AND REPUTED COMPANIES LIKE FORD DOES NOT TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE FOR THEIR VALUED (?) CUSTOMERS. THE CAR IS NOT WORTH PUTTING THAT KIND OF MONEY IN IT. I MAY JUST PUT THAT MONEY AS A DOWN PAYMENT AND GET ANOTHER CAR.

I WAS TAKING ON OFF-RAMP FROM THE FREEWAY AND MID-TURN MY POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING AND IT FELT LIKE THE WHEEL LOCKED UP. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO BRAKE AND STOP BEFORE GOING OFF OF THE ROADWAY. DASH INDICATOR MESSAGES DISPLAYED "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT" AND "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC". THE CAR IS ABSOLUTELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN THIS CONDITION AND COULD HAVE EASILY CAUSED A CRASH AS IT HAPPENED MID-TURN WHEN EXITING THE FREEWAY. IN DOING SOME RESEARCH, I UNDERSTAND THE 2011 MERCURY MILAN AND FORD FUSIONS HAVE BOTH BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING MODULE FAILURE. MY 2010 MILAN USES THE EXACT SAME ASSEMBLY AND THE REPAIR COST IS SIGNIFICANT AS I'VE RECEIVED QUOTES RANGING FROM $1600-2100. MY 2010 MILAN HAS LESS THAN 63,000 MILES AND IT IS UNACCEPTABLE TO EXPECT THE OWNER TO PAY THESE REPAIR COSTS ON A VEHICLE WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE. PLEASE REVIEW THE PROBLEM AND EXTEND THE RECALL TO INCLUDE 2010 MODELS WHICH AT THIS POINT WOULD ALLOW ME TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE COSTS OF THE REPAIR. I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE AND THIS CREATES A SIGNIFICANT HARDSHIP ON MY FAMILY AS WELL AS ANY OTHER PEOPLE WHO EXPERIENCE THE ISSUE. ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT ON THE 2011 AND 2012 MODEL YEARS. IN TALKING WITH FORD CORPORATE AND MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP I UNDERSTAND THAT THE NHTSA MUST ISSUE THE RECALL, NOT FORD THEMSELVES. I AM SICKENED BY THIS PROBLEM AND CAN ONLY HOPE THE NHTSA WILL DO THE RIGHT THING AND EXTEND THE RECALL TO COVER MY VEHICLE.

MY 20 YEAR OLD SON WAS DRIVING OUR 2010 ON THE STREET WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR LOST ITS POWER STEERING. HE HAD A VERY DIFFICULT TIME STEERING THE CAR AND WAS VERY CLOSE TO CRASHING THE VEHICLE. HE WAS IN A HIGH TRAFFIC AREA AT THE TIME OF THEI ISSUE. HE COULD HAVE INJURED HIMSELF OR DIED BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, HE WAS ABLE TO, WITH GREAT DIFFICULTY, GET THE CAR OFF OF THE ROAD. HE WAS VERY LUCKY!! THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE VEHICLE HAD 2 LIGHTS THAT DISPLAYED: 1. SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW AND 2. SERVICE ADVANCETRAC. IT IS STILL DISPLAYING ON THE DASH AND THERE IS NO POWER STEERING, THEREFORE THE VEHICLE CAN NOT BE DRIVEN.. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR!! THIS CAR IS ONLY 8 YEARS OLD AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE 2011 MILAN HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE ISSUE. I HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD THAT THE 2010 HAS THE EXACT SAME SYSTEM (ELECTRIC POWER STEERING) AS THE 2011, BUT IT WAS NOT RECALLED. HOW CAN THAT BE?? IS IT LESS OF A SAFETY ISSUE BASED ONLY ON THE YEAR? SO IT'S OK FOR 2010 DRIVERS TO BE INJURED BUT NOT THE 2011 OWNERS. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER AND DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DEAL WITH PROBLEM. PLEASE LOOK INTO IT ASAP.

I CONTACTED FORD AND THEY COULDN'T GIVE SPECIFIC INFORMATION REGARDING THE RECALL OTHER THAN THE MAY HAVE BEEN ASSEMBLED AT A DIFFERENT PLANT. THEY MAY HAVE BEEN, BUT IT PRETTY OBVIOUS THAT IT IS MORE LIKELY THE POWER STEERING PART IS FAULTY. IT COST AT LEAST A COUPLE THOUSAND OF DOLLAR TO REPAIR WHICH IS A TERRIBLE HARDSHIP BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE HAVE TO HAVE A CAR TO GO TO WORK SO THEY CAN LIVE. I FEEL THAT THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE VIGOROUSLY.

ON JULY 1ST I WAS MAKING DRIVING ON THE FRONTAGE ROAD IN MY 2010 MERCURY MILAN AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY PASSENGER TIRE BLEW OUT SO I PULLED OVER TO CHECK WHAT HAPPENED AND WHEN I CAME BACK TO THE CAR "SERVICE POWER STEERING" AND "SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC" WERE LIT UP ON MY DASH BOARD. WE CHANGED THE TIRE TO THE SPARE BUT WHEN WE WERE READY TO DRIVE THE STEERING WHEEL WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO MOVE SIDE TO SIDE. LUCKILY A FAMILY MEMBER LIVED NEAR BY SO WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE THE CAR THERE BUT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS STILL HARD. THE NEXT DAY WE WENT TO GO GET A NEW TIRE TO REPLACE THE SPARE THINKING MAYBE IT WAS THE SPARE THAT CAUSED THE SERVICE MESSAGES TO APPEAR ON THE DASHBOARD BUT EVEN WITH THE TIRE CHANGE THE STEERING WHEEL IS STILL NOT ABLE TO ALLOW ANY SORT OF TURNING MOTION UNLESS THERE IS AN EXTREMELY STRONG EFFORT TO TURN IT. I'M AWARE THAT THIS EXACT INCIDENT ALSO HAPPENED TO ANOTHER CUSTOMER. I'M ALSO AWARE HOW THERE'S A RECALL ON THE 2011 BUT NOT ON THE 2010. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE GIVEN FOR THIS YEAR ALSO BECAUSE I'VE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING AND ADVANCE TRAC. IT'S NOT RIGHT FOR US TO HAVE TO COUGH UP 1000 TO FIX SOMETHING THAT IS A DEFECT IN THE CAR. I STILL OWE ON THIS CAR AND DON'T PLAN TO JUST HAVE IT SITTING THERE WITH NO USE TO IT AND THROWING MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THESE INCIDENTS OF POWER STEERING AND ADVANCE TRAC ON THE 2010 MERCURY MILAN SO WE TOO CAN GET THE RECALL THAT WE NEED!

JANUARY 15 2016 I WAS DRIVING MY 2010 MILIAN, WENT TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND MY STEERING WENT OUT, THEN MY DASHBOARD LIT UP SAYING SERVICE POWER STEERING AND ADVANCE TRAC SYSTEM NEEDS ATTENTION, THEN MY PASSENGER FRONT TIRE BLEW. IVE SEEN WHERE THE 2011 MILIAN HAS HAD A RECALL ON THIS SAME ISSUE THAT MY 2010 MILIAN IS NOW HAVING, I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR SINCE JANUARY AND I STILL HAVE 3 YEARS OF PAYMENTS ON A CAR I CAN'T DRIVE. SO PLEASE SEND OUT A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE 2010 MILIAN SO I CAN START DRIVING MY CAR AGAIN.

"TAKATA RECALL" ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK WHITE SMOKE COMES OUT OF THE EXHAUST PIPE THEN THE CHECK ENGINE STARTED FLASHING REALLY FAST THEN STOPPED. I MADE IT AS IT AS FAR AS MY STREET THEN THE CHECK POWER STEERING/ ADVANCED TRAN WARNING FLASHED AND AS I TURNED IN THE DRIVEWAY THE POWER STEERING COMPLETELY GAVE OUT AND FLASHED SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW. I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR AND I AM MAKING PAYMENTS NOW I HAVE TO FIX MY POWER STEERING. WOW

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

"SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" "SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC" LIGHTS APPEARED WHILE DRIVING AND NOTHING SEEMED TO BE WRONG AT THAT TIME AND THEN TURNED BACK OFF. TURNED CAR OFF AND PARKED FOR OVER AN HOUR. STARTED THE CAR THE LIGHTS FLASHED BACK ON AND THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT. THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER A RECALL EVEN THOUGH THE 2011 MERCURY MILAN IS COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. CALLED FORD AND THEY SAID THE ONLY WAY TO EVEN HAVE THIS COVERED IS TO PAY A FEE FOR THE CAR TO BE DIAGNOSED UNDER THE RECALL AND HAVE IT SENT IN TO THE SPECIAL SERVICE SUPPORT CENTER. THEY MAY NOT COVER THE ISSUE, EVEN THOUGH ALL THE OTHER RELATED VEHICLES HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. I AM STILL PAYING ON MY CAR AND SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FORK OVER $2000 FOR THIS TO BE REPAIRED WHEN OTHERS DON'T HAVE TO PAY A DIME FOR THE SAME EXACT THING.

"SERVICE POWER STEERING" APPEARED ON DASHBOARD WHILE DRIVING. I HAD NOTICED THE CAR SEEMED TO BE PULLING TO THE RIGHT BUT POWER STEERING WAS WORKING. I THEN PARKED FOR AWHILE AND WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR THE WARNING STATED "SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" WITH ALSO A WARNING STATING "SERVICE ADVANCEDTRAC". NOW WHEN I TRIED TO DRIVE, THE POWER STEERING WAS COMPLETELY OUT. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME BUT IT IS NOT A CONDITION TO DRIVE WITH ON A REGULAR BASIS. I LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND SAW THIS MODEL MILAN 2010 WAS SUBJECT TO RECALL FOR POWER STEERING FAILURE: FORD RECALLS NEARLY 423,000 VEHICLES FOR POWER STEERING PROBLEM. ASSOCIATED PRESS "IN OCTOBER, THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION BEGAN INVESTIGATING COMPLAINTS OF POWER-STEERING FAILURES ON THREE FORD MOTOR CO. MIDSIZE CAR MODELS. THE PROBE COVERED 938,000 FORD FUSION AND LINCOLN MKZ CARS FROM THE 2010 THROUGH 2012 MODEL YEARS, AS WELL AS THE 2010 AND 2011 MERCURY MILAN. ACCORDING TO A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT FILED IN JUNE ABOUT THE MATTER, THE PROBLEM COULD AFFECT MORE FORD MODELS, INCLUDING THE COMPACT FOCUS." HTTP://WWW.LATIMES.COM/BUSINESS/LA-FI-FORD-RECALL-20150527-STORY.HTML BUT WHEN I CALLED FORD AND GAVE MY VIN THEY SAID MY MODEL WASN'T COVERED. BUT AGAIN AFTER A WEB SEARCH I SAW NUMEROUS CONSUMER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM ON THIS 2010 MILAN MODEL: HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/MERCURY/MILAN/2010/STEERING/STEERING.SHTML HTTP://WWW.ARFC.ORG/COMPLAINTS/2010/MERCURY/MILAN/STEERING/PROBLEM.ASPX SO IF THE VERY SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED ON MY MODEL THAT OCCURRED ON OTHER MODELS THAT WERE COVERED, I THINK THIS MODEL YEAR OF THE MILAN SHOULD ALSO BE COVERED. I THINK IT IS NOTABLE IN THE LA TIMES ARTICLE IT SAID OTHER MODELS MAY BE EFFECTED. SO EVEN THOUGH THE 2010 MILAN WASN'T COVERED PREVIOUSLY, COMMON SENSE WILL PREVAIL AND IT WILL BE COVERED.

AFTERWARDS THE "POWER STEERING FAILURE" AND "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC" LIGHTS WERE DISPLAYED. INCIDENT NEARLY RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. UPON INVESTIGATION I HAVE FOUND THAT THE SAME ISSUE OCCURRED ON THE 2011-2012 MERCURY MILAN WITH THE SAME PART AS THE PROBLEM (STEERING MOTOR SENSOR) THAT RESULTED IN A RECALL FOR THOSE MODEL/YEARS. AS IT IS THE SAME PART IT SHOULD FALL UNDER THIS SAME RECALL, HOWEVER IT DOESN'T.

WENT TO TAKE MY CAR OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE. WENT TO TURN AND THE POWER STEERING FAILED! COULD NOT TURN WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT! AT THE SAME TIME THIS HAPPENED A WARNING SIGN POPPED ON MY DASHBOARD SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT POWER STEERING FAILURE. NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL. 2010, 11 AND 12 MODELS ARE ALL HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM! ONLY ONE THEY RECOGNIZE AT THE MOMENT HAVING A PROBLEM IS THE 2011 BECAUSE APPARENTLY MORE PEOPLE NEED TO GET INTO A CAR ACCIDENT OR KILLED WITH THE 2010 AND 12 MODELS BEFORE THEY RECALL THEM! I AM 7 MONTHS PREGNANT AND FEEL FORTUNATE I WAS NOT ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND IN A PARKING LOT! I HOPE THE "INVESTIGATION" THEIR WORKING ON GOES BY QUICKLY BEFORE ANYONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT!

WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE STEERING SUDDENLY LOCKED UP AND I COULD NO LONGER STEER. MESSAGES SAYING SERVICE ADVANCETRAC AND POWER STEERING FAILURE WERE DISPLAYED. I CHECKED THE FLUIDS AND EVERYTHING WAS OK. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM ONLINE, I SAW THAT THE 2011 MILAN WAS ALREADY UNDER RECALL ALONG WITH MANY OTHER FORD MODELS. THE 2010 MILAN NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THE RECALL AS THE ISSUE ALSO OCCURS WITH THIS MODEL. THIS IS DEFINITELY GOING TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AS I DO NOT HAVE $2000 TO GET THIS FIXED AND I HAVE NO OTHER OPTION BUT TO DRIVE WITHOUT POWER STEERING UNTIL THE RECALL GOES THROUGH.

STEERING DOES NOT TURN. IT CAME WITHOUT WARNING. I TURNED ON THE CAR TO GO TO WORK TO FIND OUT IT DOESN'T WORK. CAN'T TURN LEFT AND CAN'T TURN RIGHT . IT IS VERY VERY HARD TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. IT'S BEEN LIKE THIS FOR ALMOST A MONTH. THIS IS THE ONLY CAR I HAVE AND I'M AFRAID I MIGHT CRASH GOING TO WORK ALL BECAUSE OF THE STEERING WHEEL NOT WORKING. I WONDER IF ANYBODY HAS BEEN KILLED (HOPE TO GOD NOT) BY THIS MALFUNCTION IT NEEDS TO FIXED ASAP

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND A LIGHT CAME ON WHICH I HAVE NOT SEEN BEFORE AS WELL AS TWO CONSOLE MESSAGES THAT READ "SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW" AND "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC." MY STEERING BECAME NOTICEABLY HEAVIER AS I DROVE AND THEN COMPLETELY LOST POWER STEERING AS I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT. I HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PARKING LOT AND SLOWLY WITH GREAT EFFORT I WAS ABLE TO ANGLE THE CAR INTO A PARKING SPOT. THERE WERE NO NOISES.

THIS SATURDAY WAS NOT THE CASE, THE WARNING DIDN'T GO AWAY AND THE CAR WAS NOT DRIVABLE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE STEERING GEAR AND IT WOULD COST AROUND $1800. I'VE RESEARCH THE RECALLS AND FOUND A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE.

I REPEATED THIS SEVERAL MORE TIMES LENGTHENING THE TIME INTERVAL WITH NO CHANGE. I TRIED THE NEXT MORNING AND THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTED. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND AFTER THEIR EVALUATION THEY STATED THE PROBLEM WAS THE POWER STEERING GEAR AND WOULD NEED A TOTAL REPLACEMENT AT A COST OF $2200.00. IN 40 YEARS OF DRIVING I HAVE NEVER HAD A POWER STEERING ISSUE, PERIOD. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM ON SIMILAR VEHICLES BUT NOT MINE. I AM WRITING TO REPORT THAT THE CURRENT FORD RECALL DOES NOT ENCOMPASS ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES.

THE WOMAN WAS VERY RUDE AND KEPT REPEATING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER. I EXPLAINED TO HER I UNDERSTAND THE PROTOCOL I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT INFORMATION REGARDING THE CALL WILL BE SUBMITTED ABOUT MY VEHICLE POWER STEERING WAS SERVICED ON MY MILAN AND IF THERE WAS ANYTHING FURTHER THAT I COULD DO REGARDING MY VEHICLE POSSIBLY BEING IN THE RECALL. HER TONE OF VOICE WAS VERY RUDE AND SHE DIDN'T SEEM TO CARE ABOUT MY CONCERN. I AM CONSIDERING PURCHASING A HONDA VEHICLE. WHEN MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT IT WAS FOUR OCCURRENCES 3 TIMES ON THE FREEWAY AND ONCE LEAVING FROM WORK. NOT ONLY WAS MY LIFE AND DANGER BUT THE OTHER DRIVERS AND MY FAMILY MEMBERS WHO WERE IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME. SO TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE WHO DOES NOT CARE ABOUT MY CONCERN IS VERY UPSETTING AND I DO NOT WANT TO DRIVE ANYMORE FORD/MERCURY VEHICLES. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING MY CAR, THE VEHICLE STEERING BECAME HARD TO STEER AND WITHIN MINUTES, THE STEERING BECAME NON-EXISTENT. I HAD TO PUT ON HAZARDS IN ORDER TO AVOID AN A CAR FROM HITTING ME AND TO TRY TO GET TO A SAFE PLACE WITH PRETTY MUCH NO STEERING POWER. *TR

TRAVELING TO ARMY NATIONAL GUARD DRILL DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS IS WHEN THIS OCCURED. I WAS GOING SPEED LIMIT WHILE TURNING RIGHT ONTO AN ONRAMP WHICH LEADS TO THE HIGHWAY. THERE WAS A WEIRD VIBRATION IN THE STERRING WHEEL AND IT FAILED AND COULD NOT BE TURNED BACK FROM THE RIGHT POSITION. I AM STRONG AND I COULD NOT MOVE IT. THIS MALFUNCTION CAUSE MY CAR TO SMASH INTO A TREE. I WAS KNOCKED OUT, HEAD INJRUY, AND VERY BAD BACK/SHOULDER INJURY. I WAS TAKEN BY 911 TO THE HOSPITAL AND I HAVE BEEN TREATED FOR MULTIPLE THINGS. FORD IS YET TO REPOND TO ANYTHING OR TO OFFER SOME SORT OF SETTLEMENT FOR THIS WHICH IS ABSOLUTLY THEIR FAULT. I HAVE GOT A LAWYER TO KEEP SENDING DEMANDS TO FORD. NOW, I SAW ON THE NEWS THAT THIS IS ACTUALLY A PROBLEM THEY ARE NOW FINDING OUT ABOUT AND CLAIMING NO ONE HAS BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT FROM IT...WELL THIS IS NOT TRUE AS I DID. I AM ALSO SEEKING A NEGLIGENCE CLAIM BECAUSE A WEEK PRIOR, THEY REPLACED A FAULTY TRANSMISSION IN MY CAR WHICH ALSO COULD HAVE LEAD TO THIS. HOPEFULLY YOUR AGENCY DOES SOME SERIOUS INVESTIGATION. *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A MAIN ROAD AT 25MPH AND THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT. THE LIGHT INDICATOR CAME ON AND THE DASH READ AUTOMATIC POWER STEERING FAILURE I COULD HAVE BEEN ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY GOING 65 AND CRASHED AND OR KILLED. I AM REPORTING THIS AS IT SHOULD BE RECALLED!!!! I ONLY HAD THIS CAR 11 MONTHS! I CAN FIX IT BUT AM NOW TOO AFRAID THAT SOMETHING ELSE WILL HAPPEN. I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO FILE A LAWSUIT AS THIS HAD TAKEN A TOLD ON MY WELL BEING. *TR

I WAS TRAVELING AT NIGHT, AT A SPEED OF 30 MPH. I HEARD A BELL AND LOOKED AT MY DASH AND SAW A MESSAGE THAT SAID POWERTRAC SERVICE NOW. I PULLED OVER TO A PARKING LOT, RESTARTED MY CAR, AND AT THIS POINT.... THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING. THANK GOD MY HUSBAND WAS WITH ME. I COULDN'T EVEN TURN THE WHEEL MYSELF. I WAS LUCKY THAT OUR CHILDREN WERE NOT IN THE CAR. THERE IS TO MANY OF THESE SAME ISSUES LISTED WITHIN THE LAST MONTH. OH AND BY THE WAY, I HAD MY CAR SERVICED (AT THE DEALERSHIP) YESTERDAY AND WAS TOLD MY CAR WAS GREAT! WONDERING WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON . *TR

ADVANCETRAC AND POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON; LOST ALL POWER STEERING. THIS IS THE THIRD OCCURRENCE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. DEALER PREVIOUSLY REPLACED A FUSE, THEN THE POWER STEERING UNIT. WILL TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR THE THIRD REPAIR. *TR

I WAS IN CINCINNATI THAT WEEKEND (3 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME) AND AS I WAS PULLING INTO THE PARKING LOT OF A STORE, THE CAR JERKED VERY HARD AND THEN THE WRENCH SHOWED UP ON THE DASH AND I LOST ALL POWER. I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO A PARKING SPACE. I THEN SHUT OFF THE CAR AND WAITED A BIT AND RESTARTED IT. THE WRENCH CAME OFF THE DASH AND THE CAR WAS WORKING PROPERLY AGAIN. WE THEN WENT ABOUT OUR DAY AND AS WE WERE HEADING BACK TO MY NEPHEWS FOOTBALL GAME, WE WERE DRIVING DOWN 4 LANES OF TRAFFIC AND I HAD JUST PASSED A SLOWER MOVING VEHICLE WHEN THE CAR JERKED ABRUPTLY AGAIN AND I LOST ALL POWER. I PUT MY TURN SIGNAL ON AND WAS ABLE TO TURN OFF A SIDE ROAD. THE WRENCH CAME ON AGAIN. IT HAPPEN THE NEXT DAY AS WE WERE ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE BACK HOME. WE TRIED TO DRIVE THE CAR BACK HOME IN MANUAL AND IT WORKED JUST FINE. I GOT OUR CAR INTO OUR LOCAL CAR DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY THAT NEEDED REPLACED. SO AFTER FORKING OUT $375, IT HASN'T DONE ANYTHING SINCE. THE REASON I'M FILING THIS COMPLAINT IS THAT IF THE THROTTLE BODY WOULD'VE ACTED UP WHILE WE WERE TRAVELING THROUGH THE HILLY ROADS IN CINCINNATI, WE WOULD'VE BEEN IN A SEVERE CAR ACCIDENT. THIS PROBLEM IS A HUGE CONCERN AS YOU LOSE ALL CONTROL OF THE CAR. YOU HAVE NO GAS AND THE RPM'S JUST QUIVER ON THE DASH. IF I HADN'T BEEN ABLE TO PULL OFF OF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WE WOULD'VE BEEN HURT DUE TO A CAR CRASH. THIS CONCERN NEEDS TO BE SENT TO FORD/MERCURY AS THIS SEEMS TO BE A HUGE PROBLEM ONCE I RESEARCHED IT. WE WERE FORTUNATE THAT THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN WHILE WE WERE TRAVELING 70 MPH ON I-75 IN OHIO ON OUR WAY BACK. THE PROBLEM WITH THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDS TO BE ISSUED AS A RECALL. IT IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE IN A VERY BAD ACCIDENT OR KILLED. *LN

I HAVE HAD THE MILAN 2010 INTO FORD 6 TIMES BECAUSE THE ENGINE LOST ALL POWER WITHOUT WARNING:NO LIGHTS;BRAKES;STEERING. I HAVE WITNESSES. IT HAS HAPPENED IN ALL TYPES OF CONDITIONS: STOP AND GO TRAFFIC; MERGING ONTO A FREEWAY. THE LAST TIME BLACK SMOKE CAME FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THE CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR 6 WEEKS. A WEEK AFTER IT WAS SO CALLED "REPAIRED" THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN. I STARTED A "LEMON LAW" COMPLAINT IN MARCH 2012. MY MOTHER BECAME FATALLY ILL AND DIED AND I COULD NOT COMPLETE THE CLAIM. JUNE 15, 2012 I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AND THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED. I COULD NOT STOP. I CRASHED INTO A CEMENT WALL. THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS. I GOT WHIPLASH. MY INSURANCE COMPANY WILL NOT PAY THE BALANCE REMAINING ON THE CAR. BBB STOPPED "LEMON LAW" CASE BECAUSE THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT. NO ATTORNEY WILL TAKE THE CASE BECAUSE THERE IS NOT ENOUGH MONEY TO BE GAINED. I AM WITHOUT A CAR; IN DEBT; INJURED; DRIVING A RENTAL CAR AND WORKING 12 HOURS A DAY TO BUY A NEW CAR. PLEASE HELP ME. *TR
