CarComplaints.com Notes: Ford changed a lot of things for its 3rd generation, just none of them were a good idea.
The transmission tends to hesitate and jerk when accelerating. The new electronically-driven power steering can fail suddenly and without warning. Even Ford's SYNC can be a headache. Actually, scratch that last one — it's always been a headache.

Started my car this morning and the steering assist warning came on and I could not move my steering wheel. I turned off my car and restarted it and the warning went away and I was able to drive with no problems. I will be contacting Ford where I bought the vehicle from. I do have an extended warranty, but not sure if it will be covered.
