The issue occurred without warning and was accompanied by multiple dashboard alerts including:  “Steering Loss – Stop Safely”  “Service AdvanceTrac”  “Hill Start Assist Not Available”  The steering became extremely heavy and difficult to turn, creating a major safety concern—especially while driving at low speeds or attempting to park.  I have since researched this issue and found numerous reports from other 2014 Ford Fusion owners experiencing the exact same failure. While Ford issued a Customer Satisfaction Program (15N01) covering similar issues on 2011–2013 Fusion models, no such support appears to be available for the 2014 model—even though the symptoms and system design are identical.  Dealers are quoting repairs in excess of $3,500 to replace the rack-and-pinion steering system, which is believed to be the source of the failure. Given the abrupt and dangerous nature of the malfunction, I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this issue as a potential safety defect and consider whether Ford should expand coverage or issue a formal recall for affected 2014 vehicles.  This is a critical steering safety issue that could easily lead to accidents or injury if it happens at higher speeds or in traffic. I urge the NHTSA to take this seriously and evaluate Ford’s handling of this problem in 2014 Fusion models.  Thank you for your attention to this matter.
