Upon starting the vehicle, the dashboard does not provide information, power brakes do not seem to function, power steering quits and several items show up on dash. Upon cutting car off and restarting, they may all be corrected. The next time car is started, it may or may not recur. This has happened about six times recently as late as today. Our fear is we will lose control of the car while driving at highway speeds. It seems many functions are controlled by computers that have a flaw. Brakes also lose power.

The electronic power steering on my Ford 2014 transit sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, but it sometimes, on the highway, it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. on the highway bends, the the steering would suddenly work and the car would feel like it was a bit out of control. It is fine if it is completely broken but it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. sometimes when I start the car, it works but when you get onto the highway, it breaks. We also have no money to fix it. This happens on Ford a lot and many cars have been recalled but not mine.

Has been blowing the backup camera 5 amp fuse, intermittently for the past few months. Last few days the hill assist light and the ABS light come on also the power steering goes away not a good thing, when I shut the ignition off then back on again most of the time the lights go off and the steering is back, I bought this vehicle new, it was never in an accident. The only repair was done by the local dealer they replaced the fuel pump and sending unit that was a recall..also the sliding door locks that were a recall. I found wires going to the lift gate have had the insulation skinned off because they rub on the inner body panel hole.. as you can see in the pictures I used liquid electrical tape on the wires and put plastic split wire loom tubing over the wires. Also took white rubber tube and split it and put it on the inner panel opening that caused the wire insulation to get rubbed off. This Ford Transit connect van has 32,000 miles....I thought fixing these wires would cure the problem, after going for a couple rides and lifting the tailgate it still blows the fuse. And the other lights still come on. Obviously the skinned wires I repaired were a problem, there apparently is another issue or two

My vehicle is experiencing a problem with complete steering loss when vehicle is driving worse than no power steering there is a recall on many Ford and some Lincoln vehicles reguarding this issue with steering gear. I've reached out to Ford reguarding this issue although its a sefety issue which could cause severe injury or death to occupant or bystander. This vehicle is less than three years old with a certified warranty. Although this problem is occuring across multiple vehicles and keeps expanding they aren't willing to take care of there issues. My vehicle is currently at margate Ford in pompano Florida. I'm affraid of picking it up do to safety issue.
