CarComplaints.com Notes: The NHTSA's complaint data shows potentially scary power steering problems with the 2011 Ford Explorer.
The steering complaints are pretty serious - owners report the power steering cuts out while driving. The NHTSA opened an investigation into the power steering problems in June 2012, which lead to a recall in 2014. However years later, many 2011 Explorer owners report this defect is still occurring.
It's too bad because the 2009 & 2010 Ford Explorer are solid, trouble-free model years.
I stopped for the might. When I came out the next morning. I had no radio, navigation, climate control or phone. Then about a week later. it came back. Up until June 29th 2018. It would come on an off. June 29th it never came back. I now completely. Have not controls of radio, navigation, phone or climate control from the screen. My mechanic hook his box up to it and everything is working. As I mentioned. It is like turning your hard drive on with out turning you monitor on. Just a blank screen. It sucks not having a radio. Also the usb doesn't work either..
