UNKNOWN I was on the highway during dry conditions, and very suddenly fishtailed and swerved into another lane. Caused an accident. Could have been much worse. Rear driver's side wheel is not facing forward - tow driver says looks like a broken toe link. Insurance company has possession of the vehicle and will likely total the car, with no inspection by a repair shop.

WE WERE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE A JEEP WAS THROWN INTO THE FRONT OF OUR VEHICLE BY A FORD F-150, TOTALING OUR VEHICLE, AND OUR AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, NONE OF THEM. WE WERE AT A STOP SIGN AND ALL WALKED AWAY FROM THE ACCIDENT, BUT THE POLICE, FIRE DEPARTMENT, AND INSURANCE ADJUSTER ALL SAID SOMETHING WAS WRONG FOR THE METAL IBEAM BEHIND THE BUMPER TO BE CRUSHED INTO THE RADIATOR AND FOR OUR AIRBAGS TO NOT DEPLOY. THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER HAD ALREADY DEEMED OUR FLEX AS A TOTAL LOSS BUT MENTIONED THAT HAD WE REPAIRED THE VEHICLE WE WOULD NEED TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER WHY THE AIRBAGS MALFUNCTIONED AND HAVE IT FIXED. WE WOULD STILL LIKE TO INVESTIGATE TO UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAPPENED AND TO ENSURE THIS WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT OR THAT A RECALL IS ISSUED BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED DUE TO THIS SAFETY FEATURE MALFUNCTION HAPPENS TO SOMEONE ELSE. *TR

Leaving home to go to the grocery store and as I exited my street a dash warning came on stating "Power Steering Assist" fault Steering wheel locked up making it impossible for me to steer. Fortunately this happened in a spot where there was no other traffic and I was able to just turn off the car and restart and the message was gone and my steering was restored. I am now terrified to drive my car because if this had happened in traffic there could have been a serious accident because steering capability was non existent. . In reading online this is a very common problem with my make and model and apparently there was a recall by Ford for 2011 and later cars but not 2010 even though it is a "known problem" at dealerships. For me this now seems intermittent but in calling the dealership they know of the issue. It would cost me about $2200 to fix. I am happy to provide my vehicle for inspection. Thank you so much for your help ... greatly appreciated
