Cannot Disable Traction Control

CarComplaints.com Seal Of Avoid Like The Plague

CarComplaints.com Notes: You should probably steer clear of the 2012 Focus. Otherwise, you might not be able to steer at all.

The 2012 is the first Focus to offer Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS). It's also the first year with massive power steering failure. These things are not mutually exclusive.

And while you wait for your steering to disappear, you'll be greeted with a transmission that shudders, vibrates or won't shift at all.

We live in rural Oklahoma. This is a hazard for us as the car will not move forward if there is an mud, snow, ice or other loose material on the road. This creates a dangerous situation for those following or in remote locations the very high risk of getting stranded in dangerous weather situation.
