I left work and everything was working fine, no trouble steering or anything. I stopped to get gas and turned off the car when I was done and started the car back up lights turned on the dash and my steering wheel wouldn't move. It was saying service electric power steering now. I didn't have any problems before and now it just quit working out of nowhere. So I was parked when it quit working.

This make the second time having this problem with this car. We had made it home and the tire had went flat. We took the tire off got it repaired and put the tire back on. Once we got it the car to drive it the power steering was stiff. So check under the hood, we research to find out what is wrong. We called Ford and they told us that it was a recall on it, but when we gave the VIN# it wasn't included in the recall. Why not it was produced doing the times, its a 2012 Ford Fusion. We dont have the money to get this fixed especially with the pandemic going on. We just rtying to keep our jobs. This needs to be fixed.

My power steering has gone out and upon further investigation on the internet it seems this is an extremely popular issue. I just don't understand how my vehicle isn't covered by the recall. I cant seem to find anything other than recall news and articles on my specific vehicle not even any videos or guides on how to repair at home to avoid spending a ludacris amount of money on repairs.

The steering gear failed for the second time at 113000 miles. Cost for replacement and four ball joints was $2000. Some ball joints replaced at approx 70000 miles and steering gear replaced under recall at approx 93000 miles. It only lasted 20000 miles. Online it looks like Ford has had this problem for a number of years. The last time iit failed it was in motion. When is the NHTSA going to force the repair of this item?

My 2012 Ford Fusion's power steering system recently stopped working while driving to a friends house. Fortunately, I was able to park the car and no one was hurt. In checking for recalls, there are a number of 2012's with this recall but not my VIN number. I am really surprised and very frustrated that many cars are recalled, but not mine. Please advise!!

The electric rack and pinion has failed for the second time I contacted Ford the 1st occurrence.. while driving luckily other vehicles was not near !!! other 2012 models have had the problem fixed by Ford but for some reason this specific VIN isn't covered this is a very unsafe situation because as I have read with the other Fusion they recalled some where involved in accidents due to loss of electric assist steering.
