2010 FORD FUSION Complaints

WHILE DRIVING DOWN I-495 (DC BELTWAY) MY VEHICLE LOSS POWER ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT BETWEEN ME AND THE COMMERCIAL TRUCK BEHIND AND ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF ME. THE CAR THEN BEGAN TO CREEP IN SOME LIMBO GEAR. BECAUSE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE I HAD TO NAVIGATE MY WAY THROUGH FAST MOVING TRAFFIC WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR. I CREPT AT <1 MPH UNTIL I HIT THE FIRST SERVICE STATION (SHELL). MY CONCERN IS THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN, BUT MY FAMILIY AND I WON'T BE SO LUCKY THE NEXT TIME. I KNOW ITS NOT MY TRANSMISSION, BECAUSE AFTER STOPPING AT THE SHELL FOR 15 MINUTES, I STARTED THE CAR AND IT WAS FINE. SO IT MAY BE COMPUTER RELATED. I REMEMBER SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPENING IN THE OLDER AUTOMATIC INTERNATIONAL TRUCKS MY COMPANY USE TO OWN. *TR

SHORTLY AFTER STARTING THE CAR THE POWER STEERING SERVICE AND ADVANCE TRAK SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS CAME ON DASH. WE DROVE FOR ANOTHER 10-MIN AND THEN STOPPED THE CAR. WHEN WE RESTARTED THE CAR, WE HAD NO POWER STEERING AT ALL.
